Wednesday: Cleaned the Toy before going out to the Eureka for breakfast. I made the mistake of lubricating the chain with Finnish Line Wetlube last week the downside being it picked up all the blown sand at Hoylake and Moreton.
Spoke to a chap that had ridden out from Runcorn via Chester using an Etrex and OSM maps. He mentioned about the barge so that was enough to put in a detour on my trip out to the Bike Factory.
Picked up a Mavic spokekey for the Ksyriums and headed back leaving the cycle path at Blacon heading back to the Eureka via Woodbank.

I did that route along the river with Andy and saw the small dredger which keeps the channel open for the barge.
