HRS Mixed MTB ride, its probably going to be dirty so come prepared. Midway we are going to stop for a quick hot drink at Bake and Roast Smithills hall so bring some pennies if you want a hot beverage.

This is not a technical ride but does require a level of fitness. The pace will be leisurely but that doesn't necessarily mean its a leisurely ride, MTB generally isn't. Plenty of trails and off road around the Smithills estate.
