Keighley




Here I am Rune
Distance 5.2 miles
Total 1252 Locks 70 Tunnels
Running total mileage 1777.1 miles 

Today seemed to work out quite well, we only went as far as Keighley but travelling in a short convoy of three boats meant we only had to work alternate bridges, and as luck would have it the bridges that we had to operate weren’t the ones that jammed! The final bridge that we had to work was in fact the powered road bridge so that all that was required was the pressing of a few buttons. The irritation there however was that some muppet had moored his boat on the bridge moorings making it difficult to fit our boat on the mooring to operate the bridge with space to let the other boats pass, why do people do that??

The forecast for tomorrow is for fine weather so we will head into Bingley to do the Five and Three rise then, photos being compulsory!
