Had a free weekend this week so I decided to come away on my bike. I was thinking of going to France but then decided that it really wasn’t worth it just for one night! So I’ve come down to the New Forest instead.
It was a good ride down and I came the slightly longer route which follows the cycle route and involves a few ferries (Portsmouth to Gosport, the little Pink ferry and Southampton to Hythe) which I always enjoy. Although the weather was very humid and it was spitting with rain for most of it but not enough to really matter.
I arrived at Hollands Wood my normal campsite only to be greeted with “oh no not you again!” How rude, obviously I’ve been coming here a little bit too much! They were even more impressed when I told them that I’ll probably be back next week as well!

Nice ferry to Hythe! Have you been on that little ferry from Hamble to Warsash? You’re a get up and go bloke.
Best wishes – Malcolm
It’s a lovely little ferry albeit a little expensive for what it is!
Are you loosing the plot Malcolm? Don’t you remember commenting on my trip on the little pink ferry which I’ve done on numerous occasions?
