Not quite sure where I stayed last night but the B&B was called Sunnydale and it was run by a
cycling enthusiast called Peter. He had 4 or 5 bikes and did a lot of cyclocross. I set off the 8 miles to Wigan all kitted out in wet weather gear. The rain was heavy and got heavier. I had to shelter under the arches of the JJB before it eased a little so that I could make the dash into Reception. I was welcomed and given a coffee while I waited for my contact Julie Lavin to come down. She met me with a signed shirt for me in her hand! I was taken to the pitch and was able to sit in the changing room, hanging my shirt on a peg. A little warmer and a lot heartened I set off into the rain and wind to Liverpool.
