I then made the worse directional decision of my life and chose to head towards Emmi's neck of the woods.
It was hell on earth!!!!! Traffic lights every flammin 100 meters and people driving so badly. I then had an even worse experience by hitting the centre of preston.
It was pure hell...Ive never been so scared of dying on my bike!

Never am I again...cycling through the centre of a city!!!!!!

Give me back my pitch black, totally empty country lanes any day.

Dazington..........can you please recommend me a suitable jersey for riding at night. I dont have any light coloured jerseys and had to wear a slightly too small white t-shirt.
Where were you going and trying to get too? You don't need to ride through the city centre!!! I'd go for a ride this half term week with you Al but with no helmet or shoes it could be a bit tricky - could always use my daughters milly, molly, mandy one I guess?!!!
