Swans on the Erewash Canal at Long Eaton

I had a brisk walk around the area today on my day off. It was windy, but warm. One of the things I checked out was my cycle route from Long Eaton to DHQ (Salvation Army) and Ilkeston on the Erewash Valley Trail. It's so good to have excellent cycle tracks so near to home, not something I've had in the last few years. In Leicester I was mainly cycling on roads, especially to get into the city centre.
