Concerns are continuing to grow for a missing Wigan man believed to be 'without money or a mobile phone' for 11 days.
Jonathan Ainscough, 46, was last seen by his family on March 31. It is suspected he could have been out riding his mountain bike when he went missing.
Greater Manchester Police launched an investigation and have confirmed there have still been no new updates in their search for Jonathan, whose family said he lives an 'isolated lifestyle'.

Officers also believe Jonathan has no mobile phone with him or any means of obtaining money. He is known to enjoy cycling long distances and wild camping.
On Sunday (April 8), police re-issued an appeal for information after their active search for the 46-year-old, from Standish, provided no answers on his whereabouts. Anyone with any details is urged to contact the force immediately.
Detective Inspector Chris Broad, of GMP's Wigan district, said: "We have been actively trying to locate Jonathan since he was reported missing but now need to appeal to the public.
"Jonathan has no identifiable links to specific people or places other than he likes to frequent areas in Lancashire, including the Ribble Valley, Trough of Bowland and Pendle Hill, and Pembrokeshire.
"He is a white man, of slim build, with short shaved hair with facial hair and was last seen wearing a black jacket, black combat pants, black bobble hat and believed to be in possession of a black ‘Specialized’ mountain bike.
"We are keen to hear from anyone who may have seen Jonathan or had contact from him, both in Greater Manchester and further afield."
