We are about to join the Lancaster bypass, better known as the M6.
We will renew our acquaintance with the A6 when it is less busy - we mustn't disturb it as it serves the good people of Lancaster.

Wacky Racers (Tesco Edition) - starting on the roof of Tesco in Sale, we work our way round Sale's one way system to head towards central Manchester on the A56. These roads used to strike terror in me when I was a learner driver.
This is Chester Road and has been the most important road into Manchester since Roman times - the A6 being a mere side road.
We pass Dane Road and cross the River Mersey and the M60 motorway in quick succession to head into Stretford. We drive past some of Manchester's most notable landmarks on the way, including the home of MUFC. We take the modern incarnation of the A56, Bridgewater Way before doubling back onto Chester Road and into Hulme.

Heading along the A56 towards Manchester along Washway Road, we take the M60 [4:24] to approach the famous Barton Bridge, crossing the Manchester Ship Canal
We pass the Trafford Centre and at [5:50] or thereabouts the car suddenly loses power because of low fuel - we pull the emergency fuel reserve lever and we are back in business.
The footage comes to an abrupt halt when the camera bounces off the dashboard as we ascend the bridge..

A Rover 2200TC meets its end.
The only Rover P6 that made me any money, she was a mine of parts for my other cars but we needed the space.
