Rottingdean Saltdean Brighton 21.4.22

Feeling very happy about completing  14 k on the  coastal cycle path with power on level one , the first  time for many years I've been able to keep pace with Andy 
A very flat wide  cycle path at the bottom of the cliffs , from Brighton to Rottingdean and then Saltdean completed  in  glorious sunshine. The path  ends here. I'm gaining confidence riding the electric ( adapted) bike. 

 Saltdean has a sea water lido due to open for the first time on 23 May. 


We went swimming in the sea in Brighton (30 min walk from the campsite) for 15 mins in our wet suits Exhilarating but painful on the feet coming out  with steep shingle and pebbles

  1. Looks like the electric bike was a good buy. Was it very expensive?

    2. Hi Roger. Switch make conversion kits for existing bikes, so you get a new front wheel with built in motor and a battery pack, plus a sensor on the crank. It was a bit of a fiddle to assemble, but good for Sraddhabha because she was familiar with the bike. It would be good to get her one with more of a step through frame.
