Great video again Stephen and thanks for posting! Absolutely terrible decision to have Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen to switch on the lights! I believe he's 'designed' or 'reimagined' some of the illuminations but they're not exactly the most brilliant, creative or unusual lights? Perhaps a poorly child from a local hospital would have been a better choice and I'm sure they would have loved it too.
Really enjoy the content but saying YEAH! every couple seconds for no reason is some what annoying sorry just being honest not hating. Keep up the good vids 👌
Better than EastEnders lol, lovely sunset.. I'm glad Stephen enjoyed it 👍
That was a brilliant ride through the lights - great commentary throughout ! Loved it !
A fun ride the light. Such a s shame with all of these political correct organizations that put a stop to Certain illuminations that have been there for years. Enjoyable bike ride Stephen 👍
Thank you Stephen for your time and effort loved this one as per.
Great video Stephen, I miss doing Ride the Lights now that I am back down in London.
Once in Blackpool when this was on it is absolutely mind blowing to see,so many people having a good time and it's free.,love Blackpool had my honeymoon there many years ago,,some friends had a b& b on Albert road had some really happy times there.....
Can't believe it's nearly a year gon by, Done really well Blackpool this year
Second comment incoming as i just rewatched the beginning again.. I CANT BELIEVE THEY ACTUALLY REMOVED THE TOTEMPOLE ILLUMINATION... Im actually outraged, its been there since i was a kid in the 1990s, damn woke.
Good evening Stephen - what a fantastic video & a superb event; also enjoyed listening to the historical facts you talked about.
Cycling used to be a really big thing back in the 70s and 80s, but due to overpopulated roads and traffic has seen a decline. I love watching ride the lights, i think this would make a good event for Blackpool long term and maybe more often and an added stretch in the sring mornibg from st annes to cleavleys for tjose adventurous enough. Thanks Stephen x
Brilliant video Stephen, as per usual of course. Coming up in October for illuminations for a couple of days. Might have to ingest in some walking boots I think.
It was just amazing how it got so dark so fast around 25:00.
Really enjoyed seeing all the lights. I used to visit Blackpool illuminations when I was young in the 1960s. Brought back lots of happy memories. Excellent video Stephen🤗 love your channel.
Glad you enjoyed it Anne.
Brilliant Video Steven as always could not make the ride this year my daughter and her husband and boys loved it, keep the videos coming Steven 😊
Thanks, will do!
We're all very lucky ( and grateful) that we have you to do the peddling. Thank you. 😘
Thanks Emma.
I think its great how the little kids keep up! 😃
Hi Steve - thanks for the great video. Is it my imagination or were there more animated lights in the past?
There were more mechanical lights, certainly.
Brilliant video Stephen. Thanks for doing it. We couldn’t make it out to see them. But felt we were there with your vid. ❤️
Thanks Susanna. The idea was to make viewers feel as though they were there, and I think it worked well.
the illuminations are getting more and more crap, no imagination at all. bring back the 80's 90's style lights
Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen hasn't 'reimagined' the most unusual, spectacular or novel illuminations has he? Just seem to be overuse of colour-changing Led's nowadays, not much effort put into the designs at all!
It was all great until some DJ and a tiny handful of friends decided to have a loud Drum n Bass party right by the Bispham toilets until nearly 1am. Not sure who thought that was a bright idea :/
This looked fab, the lights are so good stay safe Stephen 🙏
Hi hazel I hope your doing well
@@ellenkellett6529 hi Ellen all good thanks hope you are too, x
Haha I was on your video 3 times as I did ride the lights on my E Scooter with LED lights on it & I had a Home made LED high viz vest & my Home made LED Hat my bike needs fixing & Me & Stella could not do it together but next year we both will defo be riding it together
Should have focused more on the illumination more than the buildings.
Hope you do hem again this year in 2023. Hope you are well.
Brilliant tour Stephen and the skill to Cycle and Video at the same time.
Fascinating vlog Stephen and a great way of seeing Blackpool promenade in real time. You done it without any crashes Stephen well done 👍😉
Thanks David.
Well done on another epic "Ride the Lights" pal! This year seemed busier than last year. Lovely sunset, and great views of all this year's illuminations. Great job! 🙏
Great video same every year with the lights
What a great event.
Loved this video Stephen as well as your recent Stanley Park video too. This gave me a good insight into the nice hotels in the area too, because your videos have inspired me to visit my beloved Blackpool again for a few days in November after a 14 year wait. Can't wait!!
another great video buddy, hope you had a great time doing this one buddy.
Thank you Stephen thoroughly enjoyed that “ride the lights”
Blackpool promenade is quite spectacular with all the big colourful hotels from north to south, however i was a bit disappointed with the illuminations from the tower down to the pier not as good as they used to be when there was funny faces, dancing girls ,animals etc all manner of different lit bulbs, now it seemed quite bland.......There was so much congestion at times with the riders you did very well Stephen to avoid bumping into others, and kudos to you how you keep up a running commentary .......Enjoyed the video very much.
Thanks Aleisha. I don't think the Illuminations sparkle quite like they used to.
Nice one Stephen. Maybe next time start video with the sun setting then start bike ride as illuminations hard to see with the daylight. The rest was great. Thanks 😊
Hi Heather. You can always watch the one I did last year, or the shorter version I made after I filmed this.
You can still see the sandy beach it's built on under noahs ark if I remember rightly, the mechanisms that make it rock is sat on sand, you used to be able to see this at main entrance through a viewing window. I don't know if you still can anymore.
Yep, it's still there at the entrance.
Can still see the sand under and around nickleodeon streak too. Its crazy
Ride the lights has always been popular.
Love the video Steve, I'll be in Blackpool for 3 nights in December meeting up with friends but will fit in a day trip before then. Cheers.
Enjoyed that very much Stephen Thanks for posting well worth videoing
Hello again Stephen ride the lights gets bigger and bigger every year
Love to have been there either live by star Gate or Stanley Park
I got knocked down with a bike they are not paying attention
Oh dear.
What a brilliant video thanks for sharing it great job well done 👌👌👌
Hopefully one year soon I'll get to ride the lights. And hopefully while my old dad is still up to it!
Wow, Fantastic, love Blackpool and the light's, I am surprised the council have not started to cash in on the bike ride's, you know charge all these people a £1 for cost'e etc etc, lot of cash to be made here, just a thought. you know what there like.
Good bike ride Stephen hope you enjoyed it 👍
Thanks pal. Was a bit knackered by the end after all that riding & talking. Not used to being on the bike either.
The illuminations were better in the 90s but still look good now 👍
i used to frequent The Star pub Steven
I don't think I ever went in Norman.
Hiya Steve, you were correct about the Time Gap strip club......
Sheraton would have made you an evening meal and elgin and doric should have gone on.outdoor pool
slap up for mr wild side at the elgin
leroy is hiding in the cabin lift
@@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool most.of the.hotels do meals for.none residents if they.have space
WOW im only a minute in and already spotted whoever it was that had the lit-up bumper car style transport that was FAB! I'm sure you will comment later on in the vid if you catch up or see them. TBH that was just great to see at this point in the vid as it was Imaginative and not just a bike or a bike with lights on! BRAVO to them for the imagination and doing it! I HOPE more folks will take that Initiative in the future to ride the lights as things like that make it more interesting and a spectacle for folks along the seafront! AND promote the ride the lights event! and OBV It gets bigger and more popular as the yrs go on ..if so then Blackpool council will prob have to extend it beyond the 3 hrs and make it a yearly event posibly spread over a couple of days to accomodate those that want to do it as its getting more and more popular ! Once again a top-notch video of ride the lights by you Stephen as per Usual you NEVER let us down with events like this ! thats why a subscribe as you keep me up to date on whats going on in Blackpool as i said before my holiday destination as a kid from Manchester and even though im down Bristol i still like to keep tabs on what's going on in my fave holiday place!
Thanks Brian.
i remember in the 70s those bill board type lights going down the full length of the illuminations and all those big ones on the lamp posts either side of the road which made it look like you were looking down a light tunnel
Thanks for this great video. Very informative and fascinating.
Stayed at the Imperial Hotel once as they were doing a deal and it was excellent and had a room with a sea view. Good turn out for the ride.
good video 22:25 is me dressed up
Cool.
I csn renenber the windmill on the front .that would be about 75

We'll be at the viking this weekend.
Just saw myself on the opposite side to you 25mins into the video 😁 it was such a fun night, first time I’ve done ride the lights, I loved it that much that I went round twice and rode over 21 miles, I’ll be doing it every year 🚲😄
Nice night out for it
I liked the old style lights and hate the new just white LED's which look boring and shite.
Hi Stephen

@@juliec70 hopefully next month September some time
Everyone would agree it would be great to see the Tower in 🌈 colors which would help promote Pride. Well done those officials for removing the Red Indian illuminations, I'm sure they offended countless generations.
Nutcase NO! Trying to infaltrate a decent family English video with you're nonsense. We're alright we don't need to be illuminating our historical buildings with weirdo foreign propaganda. Have a nice day yall...it's a bike ride grow up?..I'm trying to keep it decent Stephen but wtf? Everyone doesn't agree
I can't tell if this post is witty sarcasm, or nonsensical babble....
@@number6ix929 sorry it’s juvenile and I should know better.
@@robbflynn4325 I'm amazed and also saddened that someone would complain about this tableau and then the council bows down to the 'offended' and actually takes it down.... Ridiculous!
@@number6ix929 at the same time pushing a harmful dangerous and toxic narrative which is damaging to our children. Glad I’ve got more life behind me than in front. Never used to feel like that.
