But why didn't you ride from Chelmorton to Brierlow Bar on the A515 where you can join Route 68 immediately and avoid the horrid main road? (I'm a fine one to talk, with my recent jaunt up the equally unpleasant A52 to Grantham!) There is a decent pub, the Silent Woman, in Earl Sterndale. The pub-sign shows a beheaded lady with her head under her arm!Clydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02716526238495398970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424806944441252350.post-61027581113818953272008-10-31T21:57:00.000+00:002008-10-31T21:57:00.000+00:00Should have said that both bikes wre in bags but d...Should have said that both bikes wre in bags but do not think that affected the situation at all.
