Pedal to the Pier: Manchester to Blackpool Off-Road
Love mountain biking? Sign up for this incredible charity bike ride now!
Choose from two distances:
100km off-road bike ride from vibrant Manchester to the bright lights of Blackpool
Or
50km off-road bike ride, also starting in Manchester to the beautiful Cuerden Valley Park in Preston.
With this choice of challenges there's something for cyclists of all levels. It's time to grab your mountain bike (or cyclocross/hybrid) and hit the off-road!
Starting from Salford Sports Village you'll follow the river and traffic free cycle paths, including the Irwell Sculpture Trail and the region's stunning country parks, before hitting the Fylde Coast for the final stretch. The celebratory finish is right under the iconic Blackpool Tower and once you've got your medal you can head off to get yourself the best tasting, and most well deserved fish and chips by the sea.

Unlikely IMO. They've already pretty much run out of parliamentary time. Only statutory instrument stuff could get done now.
Good luck Dave. May well see you there. Hopefully the weather will be like it is this week!
Well done for Reading cyclists for being so welcoming.
Well exactly. Anything they say now is hot air. They'll all be washed away at the general election and not a moment too soon.
Looking forward to seeing the frothing right wingers wading into this, along with Mark Harper of DfT fame with a suitably unhinged viewpoint...
Will this get prosecuted do the same degree of dangerous driving, pleas of extreme hardship accepted and pro rata to the actual unfortunate events...
Sir Liam fox. Please show due deference to our betters.
