The best of luck to all.
Always a wonderful display of determination from teenagers.
At least the weather looks set fair this year. Could well be some mist or fog.

BREAKING: We've had a report of five hounds being hit by a car as a hunt crossed a main road near #Okehampton, Devon today.
They are believed to have been from the Eggesford Hunt.
Please get in touch if you have any further information.

#Okehampton station is a marvellous gateway to #Dartmoor for #PublicTransportUK users https://www.networkrailmediacentre.co.uk/news/dartmoor-line-passes-250-000-journeys-on-its-first-anniversary-as-rail-minister-visits-to-mark-official-opening-of-the-station-building

As has become a sort of tradition for this time of year, today we went on a longer #bike ride. Our journey took us on a trip from home to #Okehampton and then along the #NCN27 to #Tavistock and then on to #Plymouth. Part of that #CycleRoute is called #DrakesTrail and has many interesting #bridges on it. The one pictured (with me on it) here is called #GemBridge and is a #steel #arch which was only opened in #2012.

This is a #photograph I submitted to #Wikipedia of #MeldonViaduct in #Devon, #England. It is a historic #structure from the #Victorian era, made of #iron (not steel) and is #ListedBuilding, on the outskirts of #Dartmoor. It was historically a #Railway #Bridge and was used to carry #Quarry material from #Meldon Quary to nearby #Okehampton. Nowadays it is part of the #GraniteWay

#Cycled over 60km today in a tour from #Okehampton railway station, to #Northlew, #BrattonClovelly, #Lydford, #MeldonDam and then back to to Okehampton on a beautiful #summer's day in #Devon. Perhaps a little too hot but still worth doing. There were several steep uphill climbs (for me) with my #hybrid #bike in its lowest gear! but I’m still in one piece. I’m glad tomorrow’s a bank #holiday :-)
