Cambridge - Ely - Cambridge

13/10/2012, 63km
Took me some time to prepare the bike, only started at 9 or so.
Flat country (fens around).
Weather: grey cloud.

not much light

An interesting garden at Histon:
metal creatures
Road B1049, fine but not exhilarating. In Wilburton, T junction, I went right on the A1123, then just after turned left in Station Road.
roofs
Very nice from then on, until Ely passing through Witchford. Just as I'm a bit hungry, fruit-laden blackberry bushes come up on the side of the road...
plenty
 Enough sugar to reach Ely, and the cathedral!
octogon...
Charity display in the transept, a sign that it's time to have lunch.
plenty (II)
It's definitely fall now...
"foliage!"
Lunch, and then back. Sun came at last. Didn't get lost. :)
