We will ride on trails from Burrs to Leverhulme park and onto Halfords in Bolton. We will ride on a couple of quiet roads until we reach trails again and head towards Walkden and the Linnyshaw loop. We will then travel on road to Swinton and Agecroft and head back via Drinkwater park and the Outwood trail to Radcliffe where we head back to Bury via trails.

The route is not suitable for beginners but for those comfortable doing 15 miles or so and wanting to move up or those just wanting to make the most of the Bank holiday for a longer ride. There is around 1000ft of ascent on this route but gentle climbs not big hills.

A loop, mainly traffic free with the exception of 3 miles on main roads with cycle lanes

We will stop for a drink and snack - it may be at McDonalds.

Helmets are a must, bring a drink and snack, a spare inner tube and dress for the weather. Please make sure your bike is in full working order

We never leave anyone behind
