This route was designed by Michael Holt and is suitable for all types of bike.
Starting from Riversway in Preston. The ride moves through the picturesque countryside on the way to Innskip, Great Eccleston and St Michaels on the Wyre before we take a break at Myerscough College's cafe. Actually, we need a new cafe stop for this ride. Suggestions gladly accepted. Thatched village a possibility, or maybe Billy Bobs?
We return via Cuddy Hill, Woodplumpton, Bartle and Cottam to Riversway.
We'll ride at a steady pace of 10 - 12 mph on this ride and we'll keep our pace at a level so that we can all stay together.
Remember, this is not a race, but a leisurely ride at a pace to suit the slowest in the group!
Please check your bike over the night before the ride, tyres inflated, all bolts tight, lubricated. Clothing, Helmet & lights checked & ready. Please ensure you have a pump and a couple of spare tubes in case of punctures and a good secure lock.
It would be great to have some new & some familiar faces on this ride, you're all welcome & I look forward to riding with you.
Please arrive at least 15 mins before the ride start time, so that we are able to get away at the stated start time
