Walking the Cotswold Way, Birdlip to Painswick

After fun at Cooper's Hill the site of the famous cheese rolling event the day ends rather painfully in the beautiful village of Painswick.

So sorry to read about your back issues and having to leave the Costwold Way. Hope you are feeling better soon and can return to complete your journey next year. I have really enjoyed following you on your travels and look forward to hearing from you again

Thanks, yes my back is improving. Will definately return to walk the second half. Thanks for commenting.

Thanks, yes much better after physio 🙂

It's a crazy race to run down that hill after the cheese. I would die if i try.

[@GeoRick]

Same 🙂

There are slugs like the black one in BC, but yellow ones as well that are equally icky. Ok Rick. I suffer from back spasms as well. I hope you are better now. I'm sure you're still walking and exercising. Have really enjoyed your series !

Thanks, yes the back is getting better with physio. Will be back to walk the second half. Those yellow slugs sound interesting 🙂 would love to see one.

Definately 🙂

Back issues are just the worst! I do hope you are finding a modicum of relief and will be able to get back out !

[@GeoRick]

Thanks, physio has helped a lot and will be returning to complete the walk.

It was interesting hearing you mention your motorbike adventure in America! Did you both have a bike or was someone a passenger? what a shock it was at the end of the video to hear the walk had to end early :( simply not fair but hopefully you can make it back to finish the job! From what I’ve seen of your journey this time around it looks like a lovely route and you’ve inspired me to give it a try one day :)

Thanks, we hired a Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Ultra from Eagleriders in Los Angeles. Lynne was in the pillion seat. My back is improving and we are definately going to gove the second half a go. i am sure you would enjoy the hike. The first three days are special.

Bummer you had to cut your walk short maybe you can go back and finish it sometime

[@GeoRick]

Yes definately going back to finish the walk. Can't wait to give it another go.
