Bringing Derek's Fulmar back to SYC from Exmouth Marina.

A sail on Derek's Fulmar down the estuary and then along to Straight Point (the Royal Marines weren't firing at the time). Sailed back alongside Julian's Halmatic 30 - the boats are nicely matched for speed. Then into Ex…

Round to Exmouth and back to meet up with the SYC dinghy cruisers at the Beach Cafe. Temperature was between one and two degrees with flurries of snow.

First time at Exmouth taking Tye Hound along the beach at low tide to Sandy Bay. Overall a success but he is far too keen on eating seaweed for his own good.

Round to Exmouth and back. Stopped at the Turf Locks for a pint on the way back. And then another pint when Gerry H appeared. Quite a strong wind but mostly on the side until it moved to being dead on the nose after leav…

Round to Maer Rocks at Exmouth. Started raining just as I got to Exmouth. The last seven miles straight into the wind and the rain were hard work.

A van ride round to Exmouth to give Scooby a walk on his favourite beach. Unfortunately, Scooby jumped a rock while chasing the ball but didn't spot the deep ditch on the other side. Scooby went head over heels and tore…

Round to Exmouth and back. Average speed not too bad given that I wasn't cycling hard (but I was on the posh bike).

Round to Exmouth and back. Still not properly over the lurgie and seriously ran out of energy on the last 6 or 7 miles.

Round to Exmouth and back on the Genesis Day 02. Quite windy.

Round to Exmouth Docks and back. Lovely Autumn afternoon.

Took Scooby to one of his favourite walks - along the start of the Juassic Coast (well - the Exmouth bit) at low tide.

Round to Exmouth an back. The first solo ride after a Xmas lurgie and I clearly wasn't fully over it. By the time I got to Cockwood Harbour I was spinning out. For the first time ever, I couldn't ride up the hill in Cock…

Round to Topsham to pick up the repaired Wayfarer sail and then on to Exmouth to give Scooby hound a low tide walk along to Sandy Bay. Scooby very excited!

Round to Exmouth and back with Liz. The home made banana and chocolate cake at Exmouth and the double scoop Salcombe Dairy icecreams at Lympstone ensured we weren't calorie negative!

Along to Sandy Bay again with the hound

Seems everyone else in Devon had the same idea and took their dogs to Exmouth for a low tide dog walk. Think the phone GPS must be in a strop - don't think we reached 64 mph.

Round to Exmouth on a lovely sunny summer's day. Slowed down a bit by the sea breezes on the last stretch home.

Round to Exmouth and back.

Round to Exmouth on the cycle path.

Round to Exmouth. Seemed harder work than usual. Maybe because of the head wind on the last seven miles and also it was a hot day.

Round to Exmouth. Hard work as hadn't done a solo bike ride for a couple of weeks.

Liz's first time round to Exmouth on the bike in quite a while. Part of an end of year mile chase.

A trip round to Exmouth to give the camper van its winter monthly run. Scooby Hound loves Exmouth beach at low tide,

Out with an ebbing Spring tide. With 14-15 knot winds from the east, the channel past Exmouth beach had some reasonable (1 metre-ish) wind against tide waves. So we turned round and came back against the tide. Easy when…

...and giving the camper van a winter run...

Low tide walk to Sandy Bay with Scooby Hound. Hound happy.

First Exmouth to Sandy Bay Scooby walk of 2015.

One of the many SYC to beach cafe sails swinging around a low tide.

Down to the beach cafe and then up the estuary a little bit waiting for some tide so we didnt have to pull th eboat up through too much mud
