Transpennine Trail Resurfacing
10 November 2008
Message from Dave Barker.... If you fancy an alternative to the Ashley route out of Altrincham, there is now another option. At long last the Transpennine Trail has been resurfaced from Broadheath/Sinderland to link with the very rideable Warrington section. So you can now join it or leave it at Sinderland (the old level crossing at the end of Atlantic Street and Dairyhouse Lane), Dunham (Rope and Anchor) and Heatley (the Railway) as well as the Warrington junctions (Oughtrington etc). Unfortunately for the Touring Section both the Rope and Anchor and the Railway are currently closed down!

Arthur Thorlby legacy
As some of you may know the Club was left a legacy of £500 by a former member, Arthur Thorlby. It was decided, as Arthur was a great tourist and former leader of the Touring Section, to use the money to purchase some Ordanace Survey Landranger maps for use by club members.

We have now got 47 laminated maps numbers 89 to 130 inclusive and 135, 136, 137, 138, 147 and 148. They are housed at the Club room.

If you wish to borrow a map please let Keith Wilkinson know or look out at the Clubroom.

AND a note from Andy Burns:

We also have two mountain bike books containing routes covering NE & NW Wales. Routes range in length & difficulty from a leisurely couple of hours through to lung bustin' epics. They are housed at the Club room.

If you wish to borrow a book please let Andy know or look out at the Clubroom.
