I'm not one for aimlessly wandering. I do like to have some sort of destination in mind. Having decided to purchase a Nuvi550 I fitted it above the clocks so I can see it easily. Once I'm on the move it vibrates a lot less
I set off from mine intending to visit the Standedge canal tunnel. So a run through the small villages and out onto the A62, past the spot I dropped the GS. I got into Marsden ok and then missed the turning into the car park and ending up having to do a loop through the tiny-tiny backroads that are purely residential. I then got back to the car park and realised it was a 15minute walk to the place... sure I'm interested in industrial heritage... but not that interested
I rode to the place itself after numerous wrong turns (the GPS didn't know where it was) and then found the carpark was disabled only... no wonder I was getting funny looks. Fortunately I realised my error and left.
