Meon Valley Trail - May 2024

14 miles, 10 pubs, 8 hrs – None of those were correct. We walked 15 miles, and several pubs were shut (including one that literally had a “we’re open” sign outside – looking at you George & Falcon!) but we had a great day out. 

The Meon Valley Trail runs along a disused railway line from West Meon to Wickham. It’s relatively flat which makes for a relatively easy walk. The most difficult thing is the logistics of going from A to B, not A back to A. 

If you want pics with hilarious captions this is the place for you!

15.1 miles - Tortoise style When we say "Look Manly" for the photo.. this is what you get He's got the whole wide world, in his hands Coffee in a pub, pretty sure that's illegal. 7 - white lion route in One of us is on the wrong path Take me to the place I love... White Liooonns, running through my mind! There are 2 types of walker - all the gear & no idea The trolling convention wasn't what we expected 2 - Lucky we brought our own supplies! #hipflask 80effcca-8269-4ee4-a700-e7ddbd6360ee 10 - Square cow - Neither square, nor a cow. Disappointing. 3 - The Shoe - It was good fit Lads I think this gate needs guarding! 7 - The White Lion Ramblers Assemble!! Nothing witty, just lovely greenery. 2d25ebd8-7bc2-4dfc-b105-de711e00e65c Green green trees of home No one told me phizz would make it get even smaller! One for the feet lovers - Little bit of damp toe After 11 miles of flat, we were nearly defeated by some stairs Nai puts his legendary observation skills to the test. He didn't find the people in the steeple. This is as close as Gary can get to a church before he starts smoking Completed it mate. This photo brought to you by J.J.Abrams Star Trek 8 - bold forester 8 - we interrupt this adventure to bring you a word from our sponsors Railway dogs Mondo was surprised they put a river there too We were all surprised to find they built a bridge under a tree The field of dreams, if you built it they will.. Just nestled between upper and lower butts was this gem, it was a bit of a hole though They really missed an opportunity not calling it the 'Shoe Inn' There's a lot of bakeries out here in the countryside Poor bloke can't even afford a real exhaust Gotta love a classic style bike... Just making an ass of himself in this field. Proof Nai walks on water Trainers were nearly a bad choice. We had no luck catching them. 2 - Despite the "we're open" sign, they weren't. This was not a quick worm. 14 miles of fun! Will people think we revered ferrets / stoats / squirrels? Here we see classic British pub "art" Stop 1 - The Thomas Lord Nothing says athlete like a fry up!
