Makes a change from "Blackpool the teenage pregnancy capital of England" (well, the north-west anyway - apparently we're only third in the country now ๐Ÿ™„ ).

Was there a few weeks ago,and they have a dedicated cycleway along the prom,from the Sandcastle to the Tower,there are two sets of steel grooved rails that you fit your bike wheels into, and then just pedal along, works best with a roadie bike,better watch out for the big green buses,the drivers want move out of the way,and shout abuse at you,strangely these buses have metal wheels, obviously a northern puncture resistant model.
