Parts of Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Leicestershire and Derbyshire

Didn't start until about 1 pm due to family duties. Last 20 miles in the dark. Glad that I invested in some high powered lights. Really needed them in the unlit lanes.

Halloween afternoon ride to Cannock Chase and Pye Green BT Tower from Burton

Variation on a route I have done before taking in Cannock Chase and the Pye Green BT tower. Believe there are many ghost and ghoul legends associated with Cannock Chase, although there was nothing too scary in the autumn sunshine other than the usual close passes. Pye Green tower was…
