Beyond Bowling

Camping a few miles east of St Ives near the town of Hayle Saturday night, I was back on the bike Sunday morning in good time. The next major town I’d pass through would be Newquay; a very busy surfer town that caters to the needs of young tourists. I’d been warned of this place, it being described a crass and cheezy. Yup, that it was. Sure, if I was in my twenties, out with the boys and lookin’ to party, Newquay would be just the place. Instead, I rolled through, purchased a cake [ basically, a light, fluffy and fairly bland sort of raisin bread loaf] which I promtly devoured. Back on the bike, I road up and down a few more steep climbs before arriving in the village of Trevarrian [there seem to be many towns on the Northern Cornwall coast that begin with Tre-].

Finding the campsite noted on my map, I rolled in, got set up and was soon enjoying a swim in the pool. Not wanting to cook up yet another meal of pasta for dinner, I decided to try my luck at the campsite restaurant/bar. Not really catering to the tastes of a vegetarian–burgers and all things fried–I opted for cheesy chips and onion rings.

Perhaps not the best meal in the world, but hey, they were good chips. As I started out, I noticed that the place had a bowling alley. Seriously, a campsite with 4 bowling lanes! Chatting with Steve, once the local pro, I couldn’t resist throwing a few balls. It’s been a few years since I last rolled and when I did, my average was a meagre 122. If I could hit that I’d be happy.

With Steve’s very capable young son, Ryan, tearing up the lane next to me, I must have felt inspired. Bowling three games, I rolled a 95, 115 and then tied my 122 average! Maybe it was the cheesy chips, maybe the ice-cream. In either case, I had a blast and really enjoyed chatting with Steve about bowling, dreams and making life happen. Steve even counselled me on my route for the next day, suggesting I ride the Camel Trail which follows the Camel River for a good 15-20miles. He promised me it would be a nice break from all the hills I’d been riding. Thanking him for the advise and feeling honoured to have met such a good bloke, I was soon off to bed with dreams of horizontal bike paths floating through my head.
