Arrrgghh me hearties, Ride the Plank

Nice leisurely ride along the Leigh Branch of Leeds Liverpool Canal. This ride is suitable for MTB and hybrids. Road bike with slick tyres may struggle on the route as the path is not all tarmac. The route is also ideal for children and the half way stop will be at The Whistling Wren, Leigh where you can buy a drink and a snack - so don't forget to bring some money along with you and if you have a lock this would really assist the leaders. This ride is approximately 5 miles in total and as along the canal is relatively flat with a few bridges to negotiate Children are welcome on this ride if they can make the distance and are comfortable riding along the canal, however, helmets must be worn by under 18's and bikes are not provided. It is advisable to bring a spare inner tube just in case and a drink and any snacks you may need for along the way. Make sure you log on and register to secure a place as ride leaders can only take 8 participants out on a ride for insurance purposes. Any questions contact Sandra via email: [email protected]
