Beachride at Lunan Bay

 


Last day of our Angus coast visit and a a cycle along a stunning beach at Luann Bay...


A few nice WW2 defence still remain...






This pill box was minted and clean and tidy inside!




not seen one of these before without the steps to a machine gun mounting post before..








tank blocks disappeared into the dunes where are eyes were drawn to a pill box...



closer inspection revealed it had been turned into a bug out den with windows, insulation, settee, ned and even a stove piped in!...







fantastic!, our cycle continued to the beach end ...



doubling back er cycled to the other end and in the film you will see a cool tidal cave/arch we cycled through it being low tide...



riding back to the van and a well travelled Landrover that look real cool...

here is the final film in our fun little road trip...



more soon..

Solo Cycle and some beach combing at JMCP

 

Another day cycling early morning around John Muir Country Park, low tide and a bit searching for WW2  Cartridge shells, found some but none of good condition to bother take home and polish...

Anyway a lazy morning cycle around the Park, and some film shot,
Song is `Satellite Anthem Icarus` by Boards Of Canada



More soon...

Beachride; Gullane Point to North Berwick...

 



Out on the coast again and were along to Gullane from NB inland due to a mid morning high tide, with a plan to return to NB on the retreating tide exposed sands...





 
Onto the beach at the Reserve point, and the gale fore wind we managed to mostly keep out of riding out was now on our backs as we effortlosy pedalled east down the coast... 




Fantastic light today on the sea from the low winter sun...


First time I have seen sand filling the small rock gully into the cave at Gullane, so made the most of a little bit film cycling in and out...





Down a quiet Gullane beach and then Freshwaterhaven, refreshing to get out cycling on quiet beaches again after the last couple of months of hoards of visitors...








And down Broadbands with lovely low winter sunshine lighting up long shadows...





Another lovely winter day to be out on the coast...


Wee film, Song is `Alright` by Tycho,
