Today's Ride

Re:

As the weather was absolutely spot on yesterday, a couple of pictures from a Purbeck ride. One is looking from Old Harry Rock back towards Bournemouth, across Poole Bay. The chalk you can see to the right is actually detached and stands as a stack from the sea.
The other picture is looking from the top of Nine Barrow Down to Corfe, and the ruins of Corfe Castle (destroyed in the Civil War, after a ling seige, if my recollection is correct) can just be seen to the right.

Corfe Castle! What an awesome place! Been there some 20 yrs ago. There was a very nice pub just below it serving insanely good beers. I had quite a few (if I remember things correctly). Is it still there? The second picture... is that from Australia?

Re:

There are a few nice pubs in Corfe, the Greyhound is the one right by the castle entrance. He weather felt like Australia!
