Come and join us on this route where the cafe stop will be at our Pop up Cafe.

As always a pick and good mix of roads/paths. There has been a modification to the pre-existing route that takes in some forest trails. The terrain is a mix of tarmac, uneven and sometimes wet stony trails and sandy/pebbly cyclepaths. Please be aware there are one or two steady inclines just over the halfway point. They don’t last long and if need be, you can always get off and push.

The HRS pop up cafe will be serving hot and cold drinks and an array of cakes and treats to suit everyone.

Although helmets are only recommended by law and not deemed to be essential, anyone not wearing a helmet will not be able to join the ride. Please be self-sufficient and arm yourself with spare inner tubes, bike levers and pump. Also, lots of pennies for the cafe stop as all funds go to our community group to pay for consumables training etc to enable us to keep putting rides on for all of you! Please note the average cycling speed will be 7-8 mph. Any questions please feel free to message us at www.facebook.com/horwichridesocial or through this page on the lets ride site.

Don't say no until you've had a go.
