Wigan
and Laneshawbridge August 2006
LCGB Signing on event / YSA Rideout
Two events this week. First off
Kelvin and Stu set off to the LCGB signing on event at ESP scooters out
at Wigan. Rather than take the boring motorway, both did it old school,
along the A58 up over the moors and through Bolton, Bury and Rochdale.
Sadly both had forgotten how slow it is travelling through the Greater
Manchester conurbation. Stop start all the way and 20 miles took over an
hour. Not much was happening at ESP so after complimentary hot dogs and
cups of tea we set off home again, just as the heavens opened, which was
nice.
Next up was the YSA/Lancs rideout to Laneshawbridge. Rideout was late
starting, which came in handy as most clubs hadn't turned up for the
official start time of 12 plus it gave us time to replace Bobs clutch
cable. Rideout was pleasant winding up over the moors and villages,
cross the border into Lancs. Sadly I didn't realise the Lancs scooter
had parked up in a field some way away from the pub so missed the chance
of seeing their scoots.
