pub challenge, but given I am off my bike and happen to be TT, I was excused the pub side of life and given I am still off the bike as well (4 weeks since my spine was fused) I have excused myself from the bike component of the challenge as well...

there was always this one as well..

My first elderflower of the year.... been out for a few days now, but I have been waiting for it to flower fully before I took a photo of it... but then there was this spot of sunshine on it today and I gave up and took a picture of it.

Some pubs on The Bridgewater Canal.

This Lees pub looks like it would be worth a return visit ( I forgot to take any money today!)
The sign on the wall says Boaters welcome, I hope they would extend their welcome to cyclists and pedestrians too.

The Waterside looked busy today. I was here with some friends recently( non-cyclists).
The water has an orange tinge from the iron that leeks out from the underground canal network in Worsley.

The Boathouse at Astley.
I have enjoyed a delicious pint of Landlord here.
I normally cycle up and over the bridge but stopped at the top for the photo.

Ooh is that the one near Sale?
If it is I've cycled there and had a Sunday lunch sat outside looking over the canal

@Katherine if you keep taking lovely shots you are in danger of winning again.

I went as far as Broadheath, where the path narrowed, then turned round and cycled all the way to Astley. The path after Worsley hasn't been upgraded yet and is only just passable because of the mud. It's mostly dry but very rutted.
