Thanks.
WELL DONE STEVEN ❤❤❤❤❤ THE VIDEOS GREAT WORK👍👍👍👍👍 can’t believe how fast it’s come around again
I used to live on the promenade and have now retired and moved away but my heart still is in Blackpool. That video allowed me to watch it as if I was still there.
Loved this Blackpool Ride the lights Love Blackpool I used to go many times once met a school friend at a cafe on Blackpool's North pier
As beautiful as they are, I had used to love them years ago ❤
Went a couple of times in the late 60s to the laminations they were fabulous then. I do think they've lost their sparkled really itsquite a poor show compared yo those times. Well done sir for showing us the Illu.inations 2023.
@@kitfrew9983 I know, it's so slick now. They used to take my breath away years ago. Maybe we're so used to bright lights now. There was just an innocent joy about them back then.
Thank you for all the effort you put in riding the lights for us .
I do miss the lovely lit up trams though that they used to have .
Well done Steve, i loved this Vlog thank you ....hope you weren't too sore x
Not too bad Sandra.
It doesn’t seem like a year since the last one but great ride Stephen especially as the rain started towards the end. Fish & chips well deserved!
Well done Steve that was good thank you for doing that loved it .
My pleasure

Promenade to the North is a lot hillier than it looks so well done Stephen...liked and thanks as always

Spectacular, thank you so much Stephen. Hope you're getting a good rest, we appreciate all you do. 😘💚 Well done. 🙏
No probs Emma.
An arse on the sore side! Seriously though, you did so well Stephen. To ride both ways and produce such a high quality video, what a fantastic achievement. I'm so proud of you xxx
Thanks Moonage xx
Cool Tour. 🚦🚲⛈️
Well done Stephen. Wonderful video all the way through. Have a lie in in the morning.
Those spitfires look stunning
Brilliant Stephen. Thank you. I will hopefully be there again in 6 or 7 weeks time so will see the lights then
Great video, I think the lights are fantastic this year, we’ll be there in October, can’t wait. Love from south lakes ❤
loads of bikes with no lights isn't there !!!, amazing illuminations, thanks for sharing , we came to Blackpool few days too early , I loved basil brush and sooty when we went on a full tram ride to Fleetwood ferry x
Doesn't even seem 12 months since last uears vlog Stephen! I have to admit myself these lights arnt what they used to be.. by that I mean very much the same, same theme. Where as as a child there were magnificent hanging lights, mermaids, the Tiffany style lamps illuminations, even McDonald's had a sponsor one year I remember near the golden mile. Those were the best, happy memories or standing out the car sun roof waving the lights on.. ah those where the days ❤ Blackpool council or who ever runs these events get back to your roots and archives please
🙏
Fantastic vid stephen nice nite for a bike ride.👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for another great video Stephen😊👏
Hi friend, all Blackpool switch on and very beatifull area. (Jeff in Leicester)

Another great one, thank you. hope you got home dry.
Smooth road perfect road amazing
Brilliant Stephen really enjoyed this! Well done mate!😊
Thanks. Its great to see the full length. Ive always walked them so it takes much longer with the odd stop along the way and Fish and Chips at the end.

Fantastic! Thank you .
Your commentary voice is Brill 😀
Good evening how are you beautiful iumations and some new ones too it good that you are riding your bike through them best wishes take care stay safe xx ❤😅😅
Hello Stephen . Thank you very much for sharing your ride through the lights. You have done a great job riding against the wind and talking at the same time. I think you will be hungry now for some fish and chips. You were lucky with the weather. Enjoy your evening and I’ll see you in your next video ❤️❤️❤️👍❤️❤️❤️well done Stephen xxx
thank you stephen you allway do a good job
Thank you for posting this, as I love the lights, but with my declining health, its impossible for me to get up there and see them in person nowadays.
It's my pleasure to bring the experience to those who can't visit or take part.
Great video Stephen looking forward to seeing them week of the 11 September gives you a flavour of them well done for riding in that wind and for getting to the end
Nice one Steve, the lights look good, shame I can't get there this year☹️🎉🎊
Fair play cycling all that way. The lights have gone very poor compared to back in the day. Strange seeing sections with no lights and most sections are just a string of lights.
Brilliant Stephen
Thanks Mark.
Great job Stephen 👍 🚴 Thank you! if it wasn’t for you doing this how would we be able to see such a great event 😁 next stop for you is the Tour de France 😂😂😂 take care and Thank you so much again for bringing this to us loved it 👍❤️ until next time Pauline from Blackpool living in Canada 🍁
Thanks Pauline 👍
I really enjoyed this ☺️ 👍
Going to blackpool tomorrow and back home on Friday
Great video, Stephen. It always seems like we are there riding alongside or walking with you on a personalised tour. As informative and knowledgeable as always. Keep the videos comimg, thank you.
Love the daleks and tardis
Love drwho
Thanks for the vlog, I couldn't get there this year unfortunately 😂
Next time!
Great view of this year's illuminations, Stephen - that was a very long ride both ways!! Many thanks for another fantastic video!
Glad you enjoyed it Janet
Well done ❤
It looks lovely and flat, ideal for cycling.
Thanks Stephen, saved me twenty quid in diesel and a sore clutch leg 🤣
I really love the lights 😊wish I was there now
Well done Stephen, not easy riding into the wind, commentating and filming. All that and watching out for other riders too! Might I suggest a long soak in a hot bath to help with the pain...
Loved to see all the riders lit up bikes and families on the ride and those Spitfires are something else when lit up. Thanks again for the video Stephen.😊😊😊
Thanks Jan 👍
Thanks Stephen. Think the lights don’t look too bad.
Hi Stephen thank you for another great video as always I was there omg absolutely amazing love the different types of bikes the penny farting was incredible and love the dodgems people went to a lot of effort well done Stephen have a great evening xx
Put a mat on one of the electric skateboards looks like you're riding a magic carpet , bit of fun
Great video Stephen
I'm so sad that I can't be there. Maybe next year. And maybe on a bike too, when I find a place where I can rent one. Great video. I'm jealous.
Great video…❤
Cant believe its this time again! Where has the year gone?
Great video Stephen maybe you should invest in one of those electric bikes for next year also be great for your Street tours again we really enjoy your videos. Thank you
An E-bike is something I could really do with.
Yes it's certainly worth thinking about Stephen
Well done Stephen great view of the lights great excercise for you 😂
Great video
Lovely ride the lights, Stephen, LED look good , but not like the old bulbs,, ty for video
😊 good video and well done you did not stop
Thanks Philip 😁
Sooty is now with Matthew Corbetts son they recently interviewed him on This Morning celebrating 150 years I think.
The 4 seasons - my favourite and Hickory Dickery Dock still there after 60 years but missing Mary Mary and Little Miss Tuffet its companion nursery rhymes
Really enjoyed that felt has if I was riding the bike through the lights without the discomfort 😮
I went through the pain for your gain!!!
Blimey it seems to get longer and longer that stretch. Perhaps its my age 🤔🤐😎Well done Stephen!
Glad when it was over lol 😂
We were hoping to come up this weekend but the Imperial is fully booked, if you think those slopes are bad for cycling don't come to Wales. Be up in mid September now for the World Fireworks Championships that start on Saturday the 16th of September.
Brilliant
