Cycle into Manchester's past

Lovely event coming up as part of the Manchester Weekender.  Visit Creative Tourist for further deets.

1910 cycle ride at Victoria Station10.30am, Sunday 14 October 2012, £5. Walking tours are so, like, yesterday*: take a tour of the city via two wheels instead as guides Emma Fox and Kate Dibble uncover the remnants of the early 20th century: the ‘war to end all wars’, Manchester Ship Canal, the largely unknown Trafford Park Village, and Manchester United’s move to Old Trafford. On this cycling tour, pedal along two of Manchester’s most significant canals, and have the option of either stopping off at IWM North for Pat Barker’s one-off reading at 6pm, or heading back to the city centre for refreshments at Pop Up Bikes. Bloomers and tweeds optional. Meet at Victoria Station (wall map). Organised by Manchester Guided Tours. Bring your own bike and lock; expect to cycle on road and occasionally narrow/muddy track. Suitable for adults and accompanied teens. *they’re not, obviously; we refer you to our previous listing.

Nice 'tache
