Last night we stayed at Earthworm Housing Cooperative in Leintwardine. A great place and massive thanks to Matt and all for hosting us. #
Some of us also took the train to Machynlleth to visit @centre_alt_tech but today we are back on the road to Earthworm Coop near Craven Arms # We have just left @huntingtonlane after 2 days building, digging and climbing with the amazing people there. Go along and support them! # Today is a Greenpeace national day of action against BP so we are joining them in Wellington http://yfrog.com/j99tapj #
After 8 full days of cycling in the last 11 days we have all arrived safely at Huntington Lane Camp and are happy to rest our legs today! #
Today we arrived at @huntingtonlane nr Telford where we stay for 3 nights to show solidarity with their defense of the land against new coal # Laura's bike was knocked over by strong winds in Yorkshire on Sunday but we are glad to hear she is okay and will rejoin us in Abergavenny! #
Today is Mark's birthday so at breakfast we shared an m-shaped cake of skipped oat bars! http://yfrog.com/bf55shj # From the Peak District we have descended to the Potteries, another site of the UK's historic contribution to global CO2 emissions. #
Another hard day of cycling up hills into the wind, today across the Peak District from Sheffield to Congleton on our way to @huntingtonlane #
But on Wednesday night we arrive at the Huntington Lane Camp to help defend the site from plans to turn it into a coal mine # Drinking a beer in the hills west of Sheffield after a long day cycling uphill into the wind… We have a few 'transition' days now # We have vegan pumpkin cake today because it is Yo's birthday! #
