Amberley is one of our favourite tea stops, with it's view of the South Downs. It's also been our salvation in times of foul weather when riding the South Downs Way.
It's a road ride but on winding, rolling lanes. So we often do it on the mountain bikes because the relaxed position allows us to enjoy the views :)
Nature has suddenly bloomed this last week and almost everything is in full growth, including the St Mark's flies! We run into great swarms of these things this time of year. They're hopeless at flying and have big scary dangling legs that brush against your face, I always try to hold my breath until we're through the swarm :)
It's a very jolly area an has a number of roads named Gadd and Gay.

You should have worn your pink outfit!
We had pink cheeks when we got home, the first suntan of the year.
Are you sure you are wearing the right after shave Raymond? It's a deterant for the flies you want!!
I can't shave my legs at the moment because I have scabs in abundance :)
