Marlow to Henley and back on a bike - 50km

Autumn cycling in the Chilterns - 20km to Henley and 30km back to Marlow

Monday morning, a cold, clear and windless day. Headed into the Chilterns. Some very plucky pheasants on the road, never seen so many. Reminds me of a tongue twister......

One smart fellow; he felt smart.

Two smart fellows; they felt smart.

Three smart fellows; they all felt smart.

Try and say it....

The leaves are just turning and the deer are rutting, it must be Autumn.

On the hill between Hambleden and Fawley

Henley on Thames

One particular Stag was making an awful din whilst chasing his herd around a field near Luxters Winery.

Met TW for lunch at the Henley Tea Rooms in Thameside, Henley. Cycled back via some really good place names, Badgemoor, Bix, Bix Bottom, Middle Assendon, Stonor, Turville Heath, Fingest and Frieth. Roads were quiet, apart from the pheasants of course. Glorius day.
