It's no good Jelon, you're going to have to lay a trail of crumbs, or run letting out string behind you πŸ˜‚. Did you find yourself again or were there more cyclists hanging around to point you in the right direction?

Unfortunately no cyclists this time. I found a road and then worked out where I was and ran through the woods back to my car! I rad somewhere in this forum that a bag of flour cones in handy?!!

Ju-ju claims she runs round with a bag of flour. Sounds highly unlikely and I won't believe it until she provides pics hehe

I think it’s a great idea - does she really do it - or am I being gullible??!!

I really don't know whether she's pulling our legs :) Maybe she does run round with a bag of white powder. Has talked about colombian marching powder being a performance aid in the past :P

Nice photo and a reasonable time, you got lost, well looking at that photo reminds me of a part of an area near to where I live, large pine trees so thick that the sun rarely gets to shine on the ground. Sometimes when I am walking, cycling and recently running in that area I get the feeling that some large bear, wild boar or wolf will get to me, (Little Red Riding Hood and all that) haha, I have only seen the odd fox or roe deer in the woods, I am sure it will be the same in the woods in the picture, no bears or wolves, just the odd deer or fox.
