PR7 5EG

A stunning ride around the quiet county lanes of Lancashire. A few inclines but nothing too long or scary.
We leave the leisure centre and make our way by road to our first incline which is Dob Brow, a steady climb requiring a low gear. Once we have stopped to catch our breath we make our way through the back lanes to The Owd Barn where we will partake of refreshments.
Suitably refreshed, we continue through the pretty country lanes and tackle the second incline of the day which is Charity Farm. After this, it is plain sailing all the way back to the start.
