On yer bike!




York is a cycling city, and this symbolic work of art is to be found where the Foss Island and Derwent Valley cycle path meets Hallfield Road. This track allows me to get to work in 10 minutes when I'm training in York itself.

Brits of the Thatcher generation will recognise the title as a quotation of Norman Tebbit's advice to the unemployed in the 80s. What he actually said, according to wikipedia, can be read here.

This is my first picture away from the city centre, though we are only a few hundred yards from the walls at Jewbury. There are still some flats available for purchase in this new build.
