I'd say from that expression, he already knows.

"Hey Will, how would the treasure hunt along traffic-free #cycling routes on #WillCycle work?"

Glad you asked! For starters, the interactive route map will let you know if there's a hidden treasure along the route.
Then, if you wanted to play, you need to log in. There's a while MONTH's free trial!

Once you're within 20 metres from the treasure, you'll have to decipher the clues in the route guide, and start poking around till you find it.

Are you up for it?

On a related note, I'm also looking for some volunteers to hide treasure along various routes. DM me if you can help, please?

With the price of fuel on everyone's minds, we're due a reminder that 15% of car trips in Greater Manchester are 1km or less. That's a 12-minute walk or 4-minute bike ride.

Save some money, stretch your legs, leave the car at home.

I think they're working on mountain bike trails, building bridges with logs.

walking route on the wirral

walking route on the wirral

Gone with this so far. Park up at Royden park, walk over to Landican via Arrowe Park. Back pretty much the way I came.

Wirral folk: I want to do a mothers day walk on Sunday on the wirral. Happy with distance, but want to avoid roads as much as possible. The route has to take in Landican, Thurstaston and Royden park. Looking on a map, it feels like there should be good footpaths between the three. Any suggestions?

Trump's decision to bomb Iran is now the greatest windfall to the Russian war effort on record. If it continues, it might save the Russian war economy.

This is an absolutely huge jump in oil prices.

It's also why Europe needs to get off fossil fuels asap (beyond climate change impact). We can't be beholden to this.

If you’re not on X any more it is easy to underestimate just how fascist Elon Musk has gone. Not just poking fun at the libs, but full on white power nationalism

You can take the guy out of apartheid South Africa but you can’t take the apartheid South Africa out of the guy

The fire at Glasgow central station is utterly devastating. Shops, homes and our transport link to England are being wiped out.
I am amazed by the limited news coverage.

Imagine needing bodyguards and police protection because you.../checks notes....think people should care about each other and fuck corporations.

Mum's helmet warning after cyclist son, 11, suffers broken leg in crash with car Charlene Storey said she was relieved son Logan had not been more badly injured after being involved in a crash this week

Maybe he should have strapped the helmet to his leg.

The key here is not helmets, but safer space for kids to cycle and better driving.

(Oh and helmet evangelists and guilt trippers will be blocked)

Proving yet again that railings are meant to pen people in, not protect them in any way from dick head drivers who can't even drive along a straight road without crashing.

Wow. Imagine having your career completely ruined by supporting Americans war frenzy.....and then doing it again. Insane! I appreciate he must be getting paid for this but even so....
