Hi! you all. I want to share my recent shots from last Sunday's ride.
It was cold all the time with plenty of rain and I was chasing the sun behind the clouds. I rode about 250 km,temp showing some 5 to 8 degrees.
Now enjoy the report.

Seems as deserted as the Sahara.

Anastasian Walls? What are they? Where are they?

Back to the story...
I saw a wall segment last summer. Mostly ruined and the rest hiding under deep foliage. I took pictures and starting googling.
And I have contacted some researchers from here: http://www.shc.ed.ac.uk/projects/longwalls/
I keep in touch with a professor and have just sent him some of the recent pics as a box of Turkish Delight.

Interesting photos.The fortress you photographed could be a Mile castle.Similiar buildings are seen along Hadrians Wall in the UK.

Interesting pics V' I'm curious about the tree platform it reminds me a bit of an American Indian elevated grave, any idea what it is actually is for?

Absolutely pathfinder.You are dead right.
What I can say is that The Great Wall Of China, Hadrian's Wall and this one very close to me are the most famous ones in the globe.
This segment here and the Hadrian's wall have so much in common.

Not a grave Dickieboy,this just a simple bed for a siesta....
Watching the birds chirping...
