Hi,

For something completely different..........

I've just seen this link on Facebook - mountain biking - right up my street and I will definitely be doing some of their guided tours - sounds and looks amazing and they cater from beginners to pro's starting from 34 Euro's - oh I'm excited now!

Bella, I've been making a effort to get fitter over the last
Six months (turning 40 and all that) but I can
See an airlift being needed if I went biking if corfu
In mid July !!
Rachel , we went to paleo a couple of years ago .
Didn't do the aquarium though so we will give that a look
We drove the ' scenic' route which was fab as we got
Totally lost and saw places to this day I've no idea where
They were . I remember waiting on a flickering amber light
For 15 mins . Stop? Go? Eh? Ha ha
Julia, we fly back on my birthday ( 1st)
Shame we will miss you
Again thanks for the info
Jon

Jo..... I too can't see the point of pushing yourself to near death riding a bike up a steep hill in the summer heat just for the "thrill" of racing down again.

Enjoying Arillas is my thrill, I might not be fit but I do know how to get the most out of life ;)

Ha ha Jo and me neither Val!

They minibus you to the top of Mt. Pandokratoras and then you have a choice of some easy routes down via the lanes or the hard one across the terrain - I will be doing the easy ones!

Personally I can't lie on a sunbed all day - I find it too boring and much prefer to be out hiking and exploring but that's just me.

I prefer going up , it's harder on the legs but coming down is SCARY if you do it properly . . . . .

I was right then. Sipping Mythos, in a seat watching Gravia at Graziella, is much better sport than fighting with Pantokrator....

From where I sit, mountains are a waste of time. Life is about enjoying every moment that it throws towards you.
