July was a month of cycling, and then in the last two days I broke both of my bicycles. Nothing drastic - a new wheel for one is waiting for me in the bike shop, and the other just needs punctures repairing in both wheels - a bit of a faff as it's a folding bike and the folding mechanism has to be removed to take the wheel off. On my last day of cycling (when I got a puncture - fortunately just half a mile from the car), I went down the Manifold Way for a change. I normally cycle down one of the other old railway tracks, and haven't been down this one for years. I'd forgotten how different the landscape feels. The other trails have expansive views of rolling hills, whereas this one is more wooded, with high rocky outcrops and cliffs, and a small river running alongside the track. I'll definitely be heading back here when I've fixed at least one of my bikes.
