The Ride - Day 5 (13th May '06)

A mile eating day today. Scenery was not always pretty as we clawed our way out of Shropshire and on to the Cheshire plain. When we saw the signs to Liverpool and Manchester it really put our distance so far into perspective. Lunch was by the river Weaver near Northwich. We ploughed on through Warrington, Wigan and in to Preston. Typically the weather was grey and it rained on and off. Big day looming tomorrow.

Members of Team Bianchi stop for a break in Wigan.
