Where are we now?

Well today we arrived in Rixton. Where’s that? … It’s near Warrington which is either Cheshire or Lancashire we haven’t quite worked it out. Today’s cycling started early at 6.30 departing the brilliant Lowther Holiday Park who as previously mentioned kindly let us pitch for free. We got to Kendal about 9. Dad bought some mint cake which I’m sure you can get in Sainsburys then onto Lancaster for McDonalds snack which made a nice change to the Scottish pies we’d been eating lots of. Then on to Preston for coffees and Bagels. It’s all food and drink really little cycling. We then pressed onto Wigan. By then it was getting on a bit but we all felt fit enough to carry on and we made it to Warrington. It was then a quick panic to find somewhere to sleep and thanks to Gav we found a campsite in Rixton where we were greeted by two lads asking for 25 quid. Youch, but is a bit of a captive market with virtually no other campsites around for miles. Now sitting in a pub called the Black Swan just had a great dinner not sure about the live cover singer.
