Full Route Visual | Kinchbus 2 - Loughborough to Leicester | 903 (BN09 FWW)

Complete with a new last song and an improved tactic of dealing with where it fell off and stopped recording.

The next re-uploaded visual is my 2 visual back to Leicester from Loughborough. This was filmed before the footbridge was put up and the diversion was still on when entering the city area.

The diversion occurs at Red Hill Circle. The bridge on Loughborough Road was closed to citybound traffic so buses had to divert via Abbey Lane and Thurcaston Road. This has been the case since January. The day after this was filmed, it closed to all traffic, and is still closed now.

Experiences: As you've seen with my past videos, I've caught this route a few times over the years to Sileby. I haven't enjoyed it in more recent years due to the uncomfortable Calverton seats, however, they have since been replaced by the same seats as the Skylinks have. The only exception is the bus this was filmed from. I haven't seen it for months so maybe it's having the seats re-done now. This is why Solars and Solos have been more common over the past 10 months since just before this was filmed.

How I felt: I didn't like travelling on the front seat because the first I rode one, I sat there and got a cramp after 5 minutes, so I dreaded to think how I'd get on for an hour, but I actually did OK. In terms of the actual route, I wasn't worried at all because I have never known this route to get the same type of troublesome passengers Arriva and First have to deal with. Sure enough, a lot of it was pensioners and families with young kids anyway so I felt relaxed (well, not really having to hold my phone against the glass because my blu-tak was shit.
