Mrs Fat Lad’s Sandwood Squelcher

‘My works about words
And sounds you can taste’

Unlike my husband who is often eloquent and can wax lyrical about his adventures in riding all day long, I am not the same! I use photographs to tell my stories and adventures (some of which can be seen on this blog) so instead of Fat Lad’s ramblings on the Sandwood Squelcher, I give you my photographic version of the day…………………………..

Mrs Fat Lad

Fat Lad fettles before the start


The start of the trail to the beach

Fat lad falls off……. of course I helped him up, well after i’d taken some photos!


Initial glimpse of Sandwood Bay ahead of us




The rocky descent to the sand dunes


The dreaded Sand dunes

Al’s final descent to the beach



………. and sat recovering!


Recreating a certain ‘famous’ photo


Al too busy posing to notice the waves sweeping past him


…….. and trying to escape




Me proving a point that I could get the bikes the balance in the sand……. as usual I was right and Al was wrong!



Al looking lost without his bike and lid


Playing in the puddles on the way back to the car
