A Day in Wigan and Blackpool

[digitalcaptive]

I had an invite from Wigan Chris to join him on a ride around his local patch, So set off on Sunday at 7:10 to make the arranged rendevous at Chris's house around 9:00.
The ride up there from Ibstock consisted of a bit of M42 and then M6 for all but about 3 miles......Not the most inspiring ride I've ever taken but 2 hrs later I arrived at Chris's and Greeted with Bacon Toasties (made the ride up worthwile just for them )
After a couple of coffees and a few fags off we went and Chris lead the way, the plan was to do a few of his local roads/lanes and then head off towards Lytham St Annes and meander up the coast road a bit.........











And lastly a bit of green laning on the old Trumpet.....Who'd have thought it eh?

You've got rid of the KLR ????, If I'd of known I would of been interested, but never mind,
as for Rhyader, I won't be taking my Guzzi anywhere too rough, probably touring the roads of central wales,
