Starting point

PR1 8JT

Avenham Pavilion, by the river ribble Avenham park.

This is a mainly flat ride on quiet country roads around the small villages on the outskirts of Preston. We leave Avenham park and head along tram road (route 55) until leigh brow. here we leave the cycle path and head for Whitestakes, Midge hall and on towards Croston. before reaching croston we take a small detour and climb up towards the Robin Hood pub on the edge of Mawdesley where we loop back towards Croston and the twin lakes café for a well earned coffee.
After coffee we head to Bretherton on quiet lanes then onto Much Hoole finally joining the cycle path along the A59 which leads us back to Penwortham where we pick up a cycle path that returns us to our starting point.

This is nice route that allows you to get a good pace on the flat with a small hill in the middle to satisfy those who like a challenge.
