The Wyre Way, Fleetwood This long-distance route is a huge 45 miles in distance and is usually undertaken over 3 or 4 days, splitting the whole route into 3 or 4 more manageable sections. It is a fantastic opportunity to follow the River Wyre from its source to the mouth, or vice versa. The Fleetwood Peninsula Loop is great for coastal lovers as it takes you from the historic seaside town of Fleetwood, on a 16.2 mile loop into the estuary of the river and up to the village of Knott End, where you can jump on the ferry which crosses the river to conclude your walk. You will spot lots of wildlife, beautiful scenery and a sculpture of two, including one inspired by LS Lowry’s painting “The Jetty at Knott End, near Fleetwood” as the artist was known to come visit the village to paint during the 1940s and 50s.
Ride The Lights, Blackpool Get on your bike and Ride The Lights! An exciting preview of Blackpool Illuminations is officially taking place on Tuesday 27 August 2024. The Ride The Lights event is one of the most magical nights in Blackpool’s calendar when, for one night only, the six miles of Promenade will be closed to give thousands of cyclists an opportunity to get a sneak preview of the Illuminations before the official switch-on later that week. Ride at any point along the promenade from Starr Gate at South Shore to Red Bank Road in Bispham. You can ride as much or as little of the route as you are able.
Definitely one not to miss!
