This weekend I'm be taking part in the annual 'Milton Keynes Get on Your Bike' event. This year to make it interesting I've decided to take my 18 month old daughter in her trailer. So far i've been blown away by the generosity of some of my friends and family, i set a target of £100 and thats already been exceeded. Though some have said that they are sponsoring my daughter not me. of course I'll be attaching the customary GoPro camera to the trailer to capture the experience - and will post the video on here when i've edited all of the walking out.
If you'd like to donate some money to what in my opinion is an amazing charity please visit my Just Giving page - https://www.justgiving.com/Mark-Coster/

It would seem that every Milton Keynes estate has some kind of ghost pathway - and to be honest some of them i've walked along recently could have been anywhere in the country, they are little walks in the woods. I understand that some are just access corridors to separate the housing from the grid roads, others are just routes which local dog walkers have created over the years.
One of the best examples of going against initial plans has to be along side the H7 near Monkston. Its clear to see from above how someone once planned for the Redway path to go behind the mound and tree line but for some reason it takes a sudden route change and runs parallel with the main grid road (shown below). So if your out and about in Milton Keynes and fancy a change of pace i'd recommend visiting google maps, clicking on the earth view and checking out where the hidden routes go. |
