Took advantage of the bank holiday for an earlier #FolkRidingBikes ride, and we got a bit further afield too.

Rode up to the top of Clieve Hill just outside Aughton and back, via a brief stop in a 705 year old pub.

New Year #parkrun at #Ormskirk 🎉😀 Was worried that it might be cancelled due to flooding 🌊 but it went ahead with a detour around a small lake that had formed in the middle of the course! The 100m at the start/finish was also flooded but couldn't be avoided.
Did my first ever parkrun here 10 years ago on New Year's Day so was happy to return for the anniversary 😊

Yayy just found one my top top cask beers ever in Tap room 12 #Ormskirk not often we see it up North #realale #beer

Took a bit of video of the Ormskirk trip too: some of the open Lancashire countryside; a game of cricket; and the brutalist Scarth Hill Water Tower

Some times you have to fit cycling around running errands, or is it the other way round?

19 miles over to Ormskirk for the market; 7 miles to Rainford to visit family; 3.5 miles to Windle to catch up with friends; then 14 miles back to Liverpool
