A challenging hilly route taking in a steep climb up Bank Brow in Roby Mill and then up some shorter climbs to Ashurst Beacon. The second part of the ride has some fast steep descents as a reward for all the hard work uphill.
This is best suited to road bikes or a very light hybrid

A road ride from Eccleston, to Roby Mill and Rainford

The majority is through lanes and B roads, there are some short stretches on busy A roads.

We will try to factor in a refreshment stop but cannot currently group indoors, so be advised to bring lots of your own snacks and drinks
