coddiwomple


Have you heard of the word 'coddiwomple'? It means to travel purposefully towards a vague destination. 


In the past my cycling has taken me on tours where I've covered so much ground so quickly that I've not taken in the surroundings. Journeys seem like a blur between where I start & finish cycling each day.



Piloting a tandem with a visually impaired stoker & describing all the sights we are passing has really opened my eyes to all the things I've been missing while I've been in my speedy bubble. While planning some of my own solo cycling adventures, I'm taking a conscious effort not to try & cover lots of ground but to instead, pick certain areas that I can explore. I guess I'm going to coddiwomple around more.
