That has inspired me and I will get some pics of our local "Cuckoo Trail" this weekend. Won't be as exciting a ride as yours- but we do have the odd Bunny Rabbit and Cuckoo's can still be heard on the trail at the right time of year. The cuckoo trail was built on an old railway line- and the name of the railway comes from the bird that seem to inhabit this area. And the "Cuckoo Trail" was the first trail that Sustrans built in the UK.

Thanks for posting- and if it rains on Sunday- I will know who to blame.
