Our Penultimate Day of Bike Touring - Cirencester

Did an achingly beautiful 25 mile loop east of Cirencester to Bibury and still had time to visit the museum in Cirencester, stroll in the beautiful park (loved watching the dogs at play) and then sip another fine glass of ale and enjoy pub grub at The Crown.  Tomorrow we ride back to Bath, our starting point (oh so long ago on Sunday Sept. 6th).  Amazing to say we never once put on any rain gear!  Here are some photos of today's wonders:

Shades of Brigadoon (Coln Rogers village)

Peter admires the oft-photographed and legendary Arlington Row in Bibury
Standing in a cottage dorway for a sense of scale
Back at the rear gardens of our B & B in time to explore Cirencester
A beautiful vista of the church from the park
A happy patron of The Crown pub
The church illuminated in the setting sun as we head back to our lodgings
Forty-two miles left to Bath, it's all ending too soon!
