Living near to the Bristol-Bath railway cycle path it’s a resource that I’ve been using for years. Indeed, familiarity had perhaps diminished my appreciation of it. But during the first pandemic lockdown of 2020 it was here that I’d head every day for my officially-sanctioned 1-hour of outdoor exercise. Throughout those exceptionally warm and sunny spring months of April and May cycling a 6-mile return trip along the path came to represent my primary connection with the outside world. Against the backdrop of those strange lockdown times I gained a renewed perspective on it. I began to carry a camera with me on my daily rides, with the aim of capturing a sense of life on the path.
