Nice one Karl👍
Have u thought about getting a gravel bike for your adventures
Good news on finding the lost microphone.
Great video, I cycle the Ashton canal a few times a year but choose my times , sad that such a great resource is dragged down by a few.
Great video as usual Karl, those canals really provide an interesting ride.
The introduction is great..can’t wait to watch it all x x x
My microphones up Lee Quarry top far left up and over the top then left again to a tower if you wanna metal detector n find my lost microphone 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 That’s UNBELEIVABLE and AWESOME that you found yours 🌈✝️🕊️😇😘🥰😍😃 Praise God x x x HOW AMAZING IT WORKS AFTER A MONTH IN ALL WEATHER 😃❤️
I’ve been naturally supernaturally doing that canal etiquette without knowing it was an official thing 😃❤️🌈✝️🕊️😇😘🥰😍
A PLACE IN THE PENNINES 🤣😂😂😂 love it ❤
Aww I understand that ..filling your soul with happiness ..on the English countryside 😍🥰😘
I’M NOT A PHEASANT PLUCKER
I’M A PHEASANT PLUCKER’S SON
I’M ONLY PLUCKING PHEASANTS

🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I support UNITED…UNITED IN CHRIST 🌈✝️🕊️
I support CITY…THE HOLY CITY JERUSALEM 🌈✝️🕊️
Isn’t it great that you can just follow a tram on your bike, it feels so wrong ..like following a train 🤣😂🤣
Absolutely great ad ever Karl x x x
Thanks so much for sharing x x x
P.S one of our nightmare neighbours is moving 😃
We’re left with the worst yet though 🫤
Etiquette is always loaded on the side of the walkers so why don't they remind them that retractable dog leads are dangerous on small paths like canal towpaths?
Brilliant Karl.
The chimneys are ventilation shafts for the tunnels. There's more than one tunnel. For an easier climb from Marsden, take Mount rd from Marsden it avoids the A road.
I'm glad you found your mic. Never thought you'd see that again.
Fun fact: Slaithwaite is pronounced Slah-wit by the locals.
Enjoyed that. That burger looked 👌
