Riding in the sunshine

Today Emily and I took a pedal out to the historic Royal Burgh of Culross. The morning started off with a bit of a frost which was to remain for the whole day. Riding in the bright winter sunshine it remained cold but not miserable. Despite wearing two pairs of socks and two pairs of gloves my hands and feet were getting too cold for my liking. I had to nip into a shop to try and bring some life back to my freezing feet but I had to give up after a short time. There is only a very limited time I can pretend to be interested in slimy tinned veg. 

We took Sustrans' Route 76 (Round the Forth) which is a mix of traffic-free paths and low-traffic roads. From my experience, Sustrans routes are very well signed. We did come across one junction where there was no visible sign. After spotting a blue sign further along the correct road it turned out the sign had fallen down - possibly due to the recent high winds we've had.
