Marston Moor

Conflict must be the theme of today. Here I am at the site of the
Battle of Marston Moor. In 1644 Oliver Cromwell won a decisive victory
here in his campaign against the Royalists.
Another civil war like so many today. Freedom fighters often robbing
people of their freedom, but equally at other times it’s part of the
struggle for freedom when negotiation breaks down.
Enough contemplation. Time to mount the pedals for a few more miles.
