2 Hour ride today in wind, sleet & snow. Not fun. http://www.mapmyride.com/workout/235920080


St Mary. Great Plumstead

 Took two of this one as it was well tucked in between trees. Hidden quite a way back from the road, I rode straight past it. Weather turned for the better after leaving here.

St Gervase & St Protase at Little Plumstead

Norfolk Church Count - 73

Four more churches (one is a ruin) seen today on what was quite a fast (for me) 27 mile bike ride. First ride i've actually managed to do in complete sunshine this year as well.

Here's the route - http://www.mapmyride.com/workout/230783042

Although i went through Rackheath (twice) i failed to get a picture of the church. Will have to find out exactly where that one is

Here's the churches


All Saints. Panxworth
http://norfolkchurches.co.uk/panxworth/panxworth.htm

St Helen. Ranworth
http://norfolkchurches.co.uk/ranworth/ranworth.htm
 Got talking to a friendly old chap outside the next church. Apparently, this is the only church in the UK that is dedicated to both St Fabian & St Sebastian.
St Fabian & St Sebastian. Woodbastwick
http://norfolkchurches.co.uk/woodbastwick/index.html

Had to take two pictures of the next one as it was quite awkward trying to get it all in.
 
All Saints. Salhouse

That's it for this week.

Cheers

Norfolk Church Count 69

Church spotted on 20 January 2013. Rode past this one on my way home from a cycle maintenance course last week

St George, Colgate, Norwich
http://norfolkchurches.co.uk/norwichgeorgecolegate/norwichgeorgecolgate.htm

Today's excursion through wind, rain, sleet, snow & sunshine

http://www.mapmyride.com/workout/228223002

Only 5 done. The churches are now becoming more spread out so will be less visited each week until August. Week 4 of my training now so focus is going to be geared more towards that too. Once my events are out of the way it will be full on cycling to church locations till end year. About 590 left to visit.

St Margaret. Old Catton, Norwich

St Mary & St Andrew. Horsham St Faith
