To the Sankey Valley & Beyond!

This is a perfect route for ladies who have returned to cycling and wish to gradually increase their mileage.

Using mainly canal tow paths and dedicated cycle paths, we will depart from Leigh Sports Village onto Beech Crescent and join the East Lancs Road cycle path. We’ll continue to head towards St Helens via Haydock Island and arrive at Merton Bank. We will have our lunch / refreshments and a chance for a chat at a new café stop! Please bring money to buy drinks/snacks or provide your own.

Following lunch, we'll head back towards Leigh via the St Helens Canal which continues through Sankey Valley Park. There will be some quiet roads to navigate as we head towards the sports village and back onto the East Lancs Road.

Wearing a helmet is mandatory for this ride. Please bring a spare inner tube or puncture repair kit and dress to suit the weather conditions. We always ride at a social pace to suit the whole group and have lots of stops along the way and nobody gets left behind

We are a friendly group and especially welcome newcomers to our rides.
