3 Days Bike camping Trip through Cumbria and Lancashire.

Back out on another bike camping trip with Ian, and back on the Lancaster canal as Ian needs to tick this one off. So it was north from Preston up to Stainton where the canal ends, then back down the coast via Arnside, Carnforth, Lancaster , knott End and Blackpool under full sun and blue skies.
Thanks also to Ian for the extra footage of this trip.

    Blackpool - not somewhere I'd be going unless forced. I prefer Morcambe but you've got to pick yer times. I've not been to St. Anne's yet. Crosby dunes are good. I've done Silverdale now, but I've not done the miles you lads have been doing for decades. Southport is a favourite place of mine for a bit of coastal thing.
