A Northern Bicycle Lane

Northumberland has some very beautiful countryside that you may be tempted to come and experience by bicycle. Thankfully there are some bicycle lanes although I'm not entirely sure who would use this one!

The road is pretty wide and fine for a bicycle although somebody has decided to make a 'Dutch-style' lane to the side. Unfortunately it's pretty much just a mud track filled with debris and potholes. Sometimes it leans to an angle into the ditch and you've got to be careful you don't drop into it! 

Seems a rather strange thing to do but I suspect it's another one of those attempts to just 'do something' for bicycles, not actually doing anything that really helps. Luckily most of the roads are quite alright for bicycles anyway.
