Now, the next challenge........ Well here's a challenge I've set myself. To travel on every single bus of any type that is currently in the Stagecoach Manchester fleet or would enter the Stagecoach Manchester fleet at any time up until the Commonwealth Games begin in July 2014.
This is a challenge I set myself last year just before the Olympics. I managed to get all but about 7 or 8 of them before the Olympics started. The ones I didn't get, I simply carried over to my next challenge, which means I now need to get those twice. This includes all reserve buses as well. They are of course the hardest to get.
Back in 2012 of course, there were just the 4 depots, Hyde Road, Sharston, Stockport and Ashton. Now we have Wigan and Middleton which adds to the fun.
In order to complete my challenge, all buses that are in the Manchester fleet at the start of the Commonwealth Games have to have been travelled on. The challenge also includes some buses that have now been cascaded, and any newcomers that are yet to come.
As I am using the Olympics and now the Commonwealth Games as completion points, I am calling my challenge 'Going For Gold.'
How about following the old ex Manchester/Stockport 'S' and 'T' reg MAN's that have left the local fleet in the past couple of years and having a ride on them in their new locations?
