Ride 8th June 2023 Lancaster and South Lakes Cycle Touring Club

We were planning our annual ride to Cleveleys for fish and chips with an exciting cruise on the way home!!

We gathered for the start at the Boot and Shoe and went through the University and Galgate then to our coffee stop at Garstang Arts via Whams Lane and Cleveley Bank(missing out the Barnacre Loop!)

Leaving Garstang we crossed the A6 at the lights then weaved our way onto Longmoor Lane and Skitham Lane to go through Out Ratcliffe

to Shard Bridge. Once over the bridge the interesting part came. Safely negotiating the traffic cone park(I think they are breeding them) we entered Poulton and had no problems with the one way system.

Down the new wide road, the B5258, to the main road and into Cleveleys well ready for the excellent fish and chips.

Suitably refreshed(but with a can of Boddingtons!) an easy 45 minutes ride up the promenade to Fleetwood for the cruise (no not a booze cruise!!) across the Wyre.

No stopping at the ferry cafe instead we were making for Wallings at Cockerham.

Another brief stop for a coffee then it was Conder Green, Sellerley, Highland Brow, the University and finally home.

Anyone who is interested in joining us can find information about our regular club rides on Thursdays and Sundays on our website:  www.ctclancaster.org.uk.
