As of last year, our new tradition (oxymoron?) is to #cycle to #Exmouth and back on #NewYearsDay, a return journey of nearly 40 km. Although it’s a little cold (temperatures hovering in single figures), it is also still but quite humid and so you can feel the cold when you stop exercising your muscles. Still, the views of the #ExeEstuary and the #EnglishChannel were nice in the weak afternoon #winter #sunshine.

#Devon sent: a short, epic #train ride into the wintry wonders of the #ExeEstuary | #Exeter holidays | The Guardian
A little local promotion.

The #ExeEstuary has a few #wrecks in it. I presume they are #NavigationHazards but I guess it would prove too expensive to clear the #waterway. Perhaps they provide a #habitat for #MarineLife. Here you can see #Birds (I can’t tell whether they are #Cormorants of #Shags).

Beware, this is going to be a long thread...
My standard longer #bike ride is a 30 km round trip to #Starcross, which is #village on the west coast of the #ExeEstuary on the way to #Dawlish. The ride is motor-traffic-free for a goo 80% of the distance. It's also through a lot of #countryside and it's my intention to photograph some of the #trees through all the seasons. However, this set contains a little more for your edification.

This was me at the beginning of April on the part of #Exmouth #beach that faces the #ExeEstuary rather than the sea itself. I may looked pained but it was the brightness of the day, even through sunglasses, rather than any anguish that I was suffering that caused me to frown.

Today’s #cycle trip was to #Exmouth which is about 18 km away by #bike mostly on #cyclepaths. It has been a bright sunny day but still a bit cool. This is a #photograph of the #ExeEstuary which opens out into the #EnglishChannel. It was #LowTide and so you can see #SandBanks in the middle of the #estuary which form a #habitat for #birds but also a #NavigationalHazard. You can see the opposite #bank too which is in #Starcross.

Fishing in the winter sunshine

@bigbeardedbookseller indeed, plenty of reflections today. This from my canoe on the #ExeEstuary near the Turf Hotel, looking South towards Exmouth and Starcross.

First canoe trip of the year. Perfect time to reflect on what matters to me.

One highlight was after we’d got to the #ExeEstuary and a flock of around a hundred duck were passing directly overhead, maybe 10 to 20 m up quacking away and heading east. I let out an audible “Wow!” as I rode by underneath. Another was on the return leg when a rainbow appeared in the north eastern sky.

Today the maximum temperature here is about 30°C but is likely to breach 40°. It’s particularly worrying as the last record was only set three years ago. I decided to do my #cycling in the morning to avoid the peak. It was a route along the side of the #ExeEstuary and so outwards, there was a fairly strong #headwind from the #OnshoreBreeze but as soon I got to the turning point it became pretty easy.

As today’s a holiday, we #cycled along the western side of the #ExeEstuary. As it’s only accessible to #cyclists and #pedestrians, it’s a lot cleaner and quieter than in town. It therefore is a great place to see #flora and #fauna, particularly #birds. I’ll be several images of today’s excursion but to start off with, here’s one with a #stonehatch as the subject and a couple of cyclists approaching.

Last Sunday, which was nice and sunny, I went on a longer jaunt by #bicycle down the #western side of the #ExeEstuary to #Starcross. It is of course very flat along the coastal #CyclePath and almost the entire journey is #OffRoad and features a rather nice, new #pedestrian/cycle bridge over the main railway line which continue to #Plymouth and then #Cornwall. My wife likes this route too. The total length is just over 30 km.
