Sunday 12 Jan - Home Counties Philosophy Tour

Rock up with an open mind and expect to be knocked sideways.

This tour will include philosophy from antiquity to the present day.

Expect yer mind to explode.

Followed by a rideout to the home of Sun Yat Sen for tea and a discussion of our future.

Wont be able to make this now Jet stream, shame cos the weather actually looks & is forecast to be okay. Have a good ride out.

Woke up @ 5.30, then fell asleep again :crazy: Have a good one!

Home safely after a glorious day out in the sunshine.:smiley:

In the end there were only two philosophers involved, me and John (Art).

The philosophising got off to a brisk start with John musing over the tightness of a female police officers trousers before we left the Ace.:w00t:

The lanes of Hertfordshire proved challengingly icy so we stopped for a well earned coffee in Buntingford.

Refreshed we sought out further stimulation in the form of Violet`s Lane, Furneux Pelham.:ermm:

We made our approach…

After a short debate we executed sixteen point turns and headed for Sutton where we washed our boots prior to lunch.

Then home via Bedford, Hitchin and a little ford.:stuck_out_tongue:

looks like you two would have been better off in waders! At least Art was happy he found some water to ride through, were you honestly trying to take Guy Martin’s record off him?
