A school night adventure
I took two half days at work and Kate got the train over to manchester, Vikki met us at the pub it was time for a bivvy adventure.
I had my sleeping system on my bars and my duck to keep me company. We headed out of Manchester dodging the cars and onto the trails at Prestwich.
I timed it perfectly and we were at the bottom of the Belmont descent at 7:30, meaning we were only a minute late to the pub.....excellent by my standards. Vikki had even managed to get us secure(ish) bike parking sorted.
After a couple of pints it was out into the wind and the rain, Kate hiding in the door insisted we waited till the worst of the rain had passed (I think the weather might be nicer in the midlands). Before we headed for some nearby woodland. Wandering through looking for a nice flat spot we found a shelter already built, so it was a night of luxury!
