The Autumn Series - Belmont or Bust

Just because the days are getting shorter, it doesn’t mean you have to stop cycling. Keep riding with our Autumn Series – now open for free booking. These rides are all about getting the best out of the season, perfect for getting out on your bike and warming up on a fresh autumn morning! As ‘challenging’ rides you can expect distances of twenty miles and above, usually with some hills thrown in along the way. You don’t have to be the next Bradley Wiggins to take part, but you’ll need to be fairly fit. We hope you like big climbs for this one! Heading north through Smithills you'll spot your first glimpse of the West Pennine Moors before heading east for the long haul to Turton Tower.  Grab the chance for a well-earned cuppa before your westward journey takes you past the 'Blue Lagoon' and Winter Hill mast.  As you head towards Rivington watch the panorama unfold before your eyes with views across the West Lancashire Coastal Plain towards Blackpool Tower, the Fylde Coast, Llandudno and the Welsh Mountains.  Another welcome stop awaits you at the iconic Rivington Lower Barn before you begin the final leg onwards and upwards back to Bolton.
