Clitheroe to Leek(day 8)
Another day of good weather and hard riding. Initially very different riding conditions to yesterday- riding through city roads getting round Manchester. Special mention to Windsor Deli in Oldham for a great cup of tea and the best flapjacks in the north of England- we can recommend them if you are In the area. Also thanks for the donation to the charities.
Some difficult navigational challenges today which added some miles and took us into Maccelsfield, not the planned route but avoided the Snake Pass. Even so some BIG climbs today like yesterday. Run into Leek was good and fast thanks to some hard work on the front by Steve. It was strange to arrive with no van sitting in the car park and Sarah handing out refreshments- Sarah we miss you already.
Looking forward to Aidan joining us for dinner tonight and Steve H (and any others welcome) joining us for the ride tomorrow. But all really looking forward to getting home tomorrow!

Leek. Let's hope that's what the Vile defence manage tomorrow. 7th place is ours for the taking. I know this is about you lot, but really you can't avoid the clash of the Titans at the home of football. Well done today. Keep right on.
