Route rating

0 stars (0) Reviews

Planned as a Novice ride, ( almost the first of the next month!) this location allows for easy routing with parallel more challenging routes to suit all.

All road traffic free. Probably dogs and pedestrians though.

There are two cafes on the route so plenty of options but we customarily stop as needed for whatever and especially for refreshment.

Helmets please on this Ribble Valley Juniors Novice ride. Dress appropriate for the weather.Ideally a spare inner tube to suit your wheel size. A smile and sunshine!

We never leave anyone behind
