#365daysofbiking Common ground:

November 18th - I visited the really very good craft fair at the community centre and then went for a trundle over the commons and around the cycle trails of Brownhills - including the new part of the former railway between the Swan Pub and Miner Island. It was a lovely, golden, sunny afternoon and although chilly, not excessively so. 

The fungus on the common was still showing well, but the star of the walk was the old railway, which the volunteers of Back the Track have been making a wonderful job of. The tunnel effect of the trees that line the old railway cutting is really rather remarkable, especially in the hazy sunlight.
