A circular route around the Ribble Valley with mid ride cafe stop

Mostly on quiet roads and cycle lanes. One short section of the Burnley Road out of Gisburn. Quite hilly.

Lunch stop at the Old Vicarage Tea Rooms at Tosside.

Helmets are always advisable, but not compulsory. Cash is required for the cafe stop as The Old Vicarage Tea Room ONLY TAKES CASH. A mask my be required at the cafe stop.

We never leave anyone behind
