Firstly, as I am new here, hello!

Just had an excellent ride home. My normal route is about 6.5 miles down the Bridgewater canal towpath, which is nice enough. Tonight, though, a section of the towpath was closed for upgrade work. This prompted me to turn on to a track I've not taken before, which turned out to be a link to the Trans Pennine Trail.

The ride ended up being doubled in length, bathed in sunshine and very enjoyable! Think I'll leave early in the morning and retrace my steps!

Bet not many car drivers enjoyed their journey home as much as I did.

Cheers

Left the canal just after Edge Ln in Stretford, took a trail which goes under the a56 near junction with m60 and then goes under the m60 further on. Then joins the Mersey, before going round the back of Ashton on Mersey and eventually out to Dunham. From there I headed back home to Altrincham.


Only ever taken TPT over to Liverpool before.

New work on Bridgewater towpath makes off road journey into Manchester a lot quicker btw.
