Since coming to live in Norfolk, I've had a yearning to cycle Peddars Way, which is an old Roman road that runs from Knettishall Heath in Suffolk to the North Norfolk Coast, near Hunstanton.
Together with the North Norfolk Coastal Path, it is 97 miles (156 kms) long.
We couldn't of picked more perfect weather conditions, so on Monday, whilst the girls were staying with G&G, we eagerly set off for our 2 day and night adventure and rode to Brancaster, which was about 60 miles. Although it was challenging at times, we had a ball, though our butts weren't so pleased with it. OMG, they ached!!!!

| The start of the track. |
 |
| Remains of what would of been a very grand Castle, at Castle Acre |
 |
| There's a perfectly good bridge to cycle over, but no, too easy right? |
 |
| Short detour to Great Birchman windmall, one of the few working mills left in Norfolk |
 |
| Fields upon fields and great big open skies |
 |
| Holmes next the Sea |
 |
| Great Massingham. We stayed here on our first night at the Dabbling Duck. |
 |
| 'Round another bend |

G&G met us in Titchwell on our last day with the kids.
Here is Taylor showing Granny her crab she found. |

| The sea is actually miles away, but this doesn't matter as long as you've got your windbreaker set up! |
