Breezing through the parks

we will leave our starting point and do a loop around Avenham and miller park. we then head towards penwortham and Hurst grange park. Again we will loop around this park then join the cycle paths to Booths where we make our way to penwortham. We join the cycle high way as far as the vets then weave our way through the quiet residential streets to Priory park. we then cycle along the treelined avenue and rejoin the cycling highway to the cyclops junction. At this point we join the guildwheel and return to our start point in Avenham park. we will ride at a leisurely pace so that we can enjoy a chat, the parklands and views of the river.

This is an easy going ride suitable for those returning to cycling

the majority of the route will be on shared paths and cycle paths.

There will be plenty of opportunities to stop to catch our breath and have a drink. we aim to achieve and average of 7 to 8 miles per hour

Please bring water and a snack as there is no planned coffee stop on this ride. Be prepared for wet weather and please bring a spare inner tube, puncture repair kit and pump. you are advised to wear a helmet and all participants under 18 must wear a helmet.
