23rd: Daisy Nook walk
On a fine sunny day 20 members met up at Daisy Nook Country Park.
Two of our members thought it was better to have a tour of the
motorways while everyone was still watching the football. In other words
took the wrong route, but it was also good night to make use of the
quiet motorways.
The leader was already to go after his run to the event. warmed up.
The route took us in to the park area with high views across the valleys. It was then on to the canals with a a lovely downhill towards the vallery floor. Under the motorway with our member passing above us. Then the climbe into the lovley sleepy village of Woodhouses. By now everyone was into the brisk pace with little break. After woodhouses we drop back down to the valley with the small little slog to the other side. Where we had fine views across the vallerys and looking towards Manchester and ramsbottom. Then back to the cars with a short drive to the country pub of the Woodhouse Gardens pub. To refuel the body.
Toatl distance weas 4.50 miles in hour and half.
