This is a lovely challenging ride. We leave Shevington Moor and make our way long country roads to Coppull and Adlington before we cycle into Rivington and our first climb. A steep climb to enjoy the views over Angelzarke ,the largest reservoir in Rivington. After a breather we continue to climb before dropping down into Chorley and for a cafe stop at Birdie cafe. From there we undulate through Ulnes Walton, Bretherton Croston and to our final climb, Charity farm.
About 1600 feet of climbing avg speed 11.13 mph.
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. Don’t forget your pennies for the café stop. Please ensure you bring along a drink for the ride. Also check you brakes and gears on your bike at least the night before.
