Starting from - Starting from - Starting from Morrisons ,Harwood we will head onto Bradshaw road ( a long steady climb )continuing onto Ramsbottom road through Hawkshaw and then onto Bolton road before turning right onto Holcombe Road ( this is a challenging Right turn but does have a filter lane ) We then turn right at Carmellos ( another challenging right turn ) but re-group befor starting the long stady climb along Turton road continuing up along Tottington road ( as you get to the top of the climb look out for the yellow smiley face on thr right )We then continue towards Indiagate and turn left onto Bradshaw Road eventually turning left at the crofters and back towards Morrisons .This is a challeging route, with some long stead inclines but worth the views. Suitable for a hybrid bike or road bike . You will need a level of fitness to cope with some long steady inclines but if you need to get off and walk sometimes, its not a problem! You need to be confident on roads with traffic. Bring a helmet, roadworthy bike, inner tube specific to your bike and dress for the weather. Check your typres are pumped up and your seat height is high enough. Have it as high as you can manage which eases the strain on your knees! Check your brakes are working. if they aren't you will not be allowed to ride. The more comfortable and efficient your bike is the more you will enjoy the ride! If its been in the shed a while a bike service at a reputable shop is a good idea.. BL2 3LB, BL2 3LB
