We arrived at Weymouth which is a very pretty town, with a lovely marina and our Hotel was situated right by the old Harbour Area.

Pedal Pushers
Due to various factors…holidays…trip out and a rainy start only 2 of the pedal pushers decided to go for a ride today. However…less is sometimes more and we rode from our usual start point at Litherland Sports centre as far as the Lifeguard Station on Crosby shore. We used the paths through the marine park and the very sandy paths along the first part of the shore which gave us new challenges. However on reaching the coastguard station we faced our biggest challenge….a puncture! Continue reading

We may soon have to think about changing the name of this group! On our latest walk we set off from Sandhills station and walked along the canal, and Dock Road until we reached the Pier Head, where we had a short stop for a coffee or ice cream and then carried on to the Britannia pub. After Sunday lunch some of the group decided to carry on to the site 
of the Garden Festival and get the train at St Michaels, some got the bus/train back to Liverpool, whilst the rest of the group retraced their steps back to Moorfields, covering 10 miles!!!! Thanks to Judith and Ken for leading this walk, it was all on the flat and people were given options along the route to shorten or lengthen the walk to meet their personal needs.
New members have just completed the training provided free by Sefton Active and have joined the Nordic Walking group on a Monday night. We now have 18 members in the group, who enjoy going for walks on sunny evenings along the canal, Cheshire lines and fields in Lydiate.
