“By my calculations a cart wheel takes about 4 metres to do.
It is 50 miles to the Dark Hedges from here.
There are 1609 metres in a mile, so it is 80,450 metres to the dark hedges from here.
If travelling from here to the Dark hedges via cart wheels it would take 20,112 and a half cart wheels to get there.

A tumble over is roughly 2 metres long.
