Join us for a day out across the border into Lancashire. Meeting at Worden Park in Leyland What3Words we'll set off along the quiet roads & cycle paths to Cuerden Valley Way. We shall follow this route upto Preston & the Guild Wheel. Two pit stops are planned along the route, as well as frequent water breaks. This is mostly shared pathways, trails & cycleways however due to the distance it is an "Advanced" ride.
Please note: There are 3 steep inclines of 20%, 15% & 10% amongst other undulations. The 20% you will have to walk your bike up due to the terrain. Please consider this if you're coming on a heavier e-bike. We can take the other hills at our own pace. Not suitable for skinny tyres.
We shall be setting off promptly at 9.30am. Please arrive with enough time to remove your bike from the car. There are toilets at the park but they are some distance from the car park (Currently the car park toilets are closed) The nearest train station is Buckshaw Village.
