7°C, grey & rather windy. C=54 miles
Got it wrong today, I was quite warm setting out but the wind-chill soon got to me. By half-way I was regretting not wearing that woollen tee-shirt.
Laid eyes on two oddities today: 1- a pair of black swans ( post photo later) 2/ two scrambler motorbikes only seperated by a piece of rope. I’ve never seen a motorcycle towed on a rope before.
Still haven’t warmed up properly.
I’m deeply shocked and disgusted by this: BBC story "Indian Rhino looses fight for life"
There is not a thread of evidence that the far east’s "Chinese medicine" has the slightest foundation in fact. I can see it getting worse as China’s wealth becomes greater. There is a noble creature, making an honest attempt at bringing up its youngster, and both their lives are taken for some arbitrary fantasy, a pseudo-science that is closer to religion.

"The conflict between rangers and poachers has claimed the lives of 60 people
over the past 20 years"
I hope none of those lives lost were the rangers’.
That photograph is going to haunt me.
