Good ride, Skolly taking us on a magical mystery tour (me and Skud) of Southern Manchester (PS I know South Manchester) but Skolly picked up just about every knook and cranny, including a bit of CX action round a small 'secret lake' whilst we didn't have suitable tyres (I had slicks on the CX). All good fun.
I'm sure Skolly was taking me within about half a mile or less of about 5 places I've worked, via college and via a long gone bike shop where we both bought our first MTB's all those years ago. Lovely lunch (late breakfast) in Bruntwood Park.
30 mile ride, but all three of us did about 50 miles or more as we're all 10 miles or so from the start point.
