Thames foot path spans many miles on both sides of the river. I know only small parts of it, the one between Thames Barrier and Royal Greenwich up to the Ahoy Yacht club, some part in central London and both sides between Putney and Barnes railway bridges. My favourite and the closest is the last […]
Yet another beautiful day 🙂 Start as usual, not too early but just right at 9am after a good, home made breakfast, I left Penzance for Tintagel. Interestingly, forecast for today was as good as it gets, sunny, light winds and a bit of clouds for another pleasant and warm day. You can’t ask for […]
One day I have joined some membership club website for bikers. Had few conversations about bikes, experiences and riding location. I was looking to for new adventure and this time I wanted to do it with another rider. It happened that one person from Sudbury responded to one of my post and invited me to […]
This is the first day of the second half of my travel around Cornwall. Today I went all around the most Western Tip of Cornwall and the UK. I went from Penzance to Land’s End via Minack Theatre; to St Ives via Boscaswell and visited remains of Crown and Mine Engines on the famous Tin […]
At 7:30 on my feet for breakfast at 8 and start at 9 am for lovely ride from Lizard to Penzance. Beautiful, sunny day with light breeze. Not too hot, just right to enjoy. The route I planned for today is rather short (39.4 miles) but it features few places worth stopping by. It was […]
This was one of the nicest rides in whole trip. Apart from visiting two castles and taking a ferry, the ride to Lizard was a pure joy on those roads I took and places I went through. St Mawes On this leg there were 69 miles with 2.5 hours on ‘saddle’. The route took me […]
I arrived in Bodmin pretty soaked the day before and weather for today wasn’t encouraging. Heavy clouds with thick drizzle showers, light fog with very warm and so humid air. Not the best combination for motorcycle riding. If it is warm then you need an airy clothing but if it rains than it should be […]
Problem It seems an easy task to make a route with Google maps. Open the app, type in a post code or address or locate your destination on the map. Then check alternatives if any and click on Start. Well, it won’t work like that if you want a specific route. The reason is simple […]
As of today, that is on 30/12/2020, the Tomas Travel website has received a brand new theme. It was developed in Japan under the name of Lightning. I hope that this new theme will serve well and prove much more useful and flexible then the previous one. This Lightning is tablet and mobile friendly. All […]
It was nice place to stay in Slapton but the time came to move on. My new destination was Bodmin, the first place in Cornwall. Bodmin is almost exactly in the middle between the North and South costs of Cornwall. Either way it is fairly short distance to Fowey, a lovely small costal town or […]
