Day trip to Stonehenge
Today my dad and I rode out to see Stonehenge in Wiltshire. We had a fantastic ride through the beautiful English countryside. Some of the roads in this part of the world are amazing! Narrow country lanes through forests and past fields. The weather was ok, not too sunny but it didn't rain. Got stuck behind a few cagers cruising along at about 40 in a 60 limit which is always irritating but once you're past 'em and you can open it up a little... WOO HOOO!!!!
Anyway, here is Stonehenge....
Hope you like the picture!

Forgot to mention, It was about 240 miles round trip and I averaged 67 miles per gallon. How does that compare to what you're getting? With gas so expensive over here I'm pretty happy with that!

That is cool! Although somehow, I thought it was bigger.
Exactly how old is Stonehenge?
