Home via Heysham

 I had decided to do the ride back to the ferry in one hit rather than stay another night in Falkirk. Its a 6.5 hour ride so I had to be up for a 5am start. 


Cheryl my lovely host offered to make me bacon rolls before I set off but I declined.


I had loaded the bike up the night before, so as to hopefully not disturb other patrons too much.

It was just  before 5am  and dark when I set off, I was glad to see the sun-rising an hour later  as this is the first time i had ridden in the darkness for years

 I've learnt the bikes lights are not the best, if I keep the bike I'll invest in some spot lamps.


The Manxman


It was another boring ride , the same as the way up once I hit the motorway, I was glad to reach the terminal with only  50 mins before departure.


Sun setting over the IOM as we approach.
