Off to the South Downs with no kids
A few fellow fathers and I from Pirbright Road took ourselves off to Sussex for a bit of a walk yesterday. Jointly organised by Rich (Thomas and Ben), Jules (Ruby and Casper), Mark (Lena) and myself, we trained it down to Alfriston Friday and walked the 15 miles from there to Eastbourne on Saturday. Then back to reality for bathime that evening.
Fuelled up on good food from The George (Lamb or beef, sir? "I'll have the one with the most fat, please") and local brew, we made good time. Especially with no one demanding to ride on our shoulders.
The scenery was pretty impressive- we started out at 9:45am on misty country trails and then the second half was the high, chalky bluffs of the Seven Sisters and Beechy Head right along the coast.
UPDATE: According to google maps, it looks like we walked about 11 miles.
