Still getting over a pesky cold, but decided time to give a few hills a go today in the Hambleden Valley, so went out with John who was also keen to see how he would get on standing up most of the way.
Parked at Crazies Hill, and headed over the weir at Hambleden Lock, through Hambleden, up to Frieith, and back for tea at Hambleden Post Office.
Approaching Hambleden Village, and a view towards what used to be the "old" barn, now renovated.
