We start at Hockery brook and pick up National Cycle route 55, where we cross over the canal, and ride into the lower plantations Haigh Hall, we then have a half way stop at the Allotment Cafe. We return via the canal path and pick up the route into Amberswood which takes us back to the carpark.

Kick start your new year with a Breeze ride There is a free carpark which is located opposite La Cava Hindley

The route is traffic free and we ride on gravel paths and imprinted concrete, the ride is suitable for beginners and intermediates, and we also welcome children who are reasonably confident on their bike.

We are planning on stopping halfway at the well known Allotment Cafe, on Wigan Lane, so please bring some money for a warm drink and may be a slice of cake. We ride to slowest and we are not to posh to push!, there are not many hills on this ride just a small one before the cafe stop , but dont let that put you off!

All children must wear a helmet, and we advise all riders to wear a helmet for safety. If you can bring a spare inner tube just in case , if you dont have one , fear not we will always look to help out, and will never leave anyone behind.

First-timers welcome!
