Belmont for Brunch

Belmont For Brunch

This ride was created for the Friendly Cyclists by Craig Atherton.

Starting from Tesco, Leyland, we head out towards Brindle, on to Riley Green then a mad dash down to Belmont and a sharp right turn up to Winter Hill, (make sure you are in the right gear at the turn as it is a short sharp incline) over the hill and a brew stop at Rivington tea rooms.

The return takes in Chapel Hillock, Coppull Moor, Charnock Richard, Eccleston, and finally back to Leyland.

We'll ride at a steady pace of 8 - 10 mph on this ride and we'll keep our pace at a level so that we can all stay together.
Remember, this is not a race, but a leisurely ride at a pace to suit the slowest in the group!
Please check your bike over the night before the ride, tyres inflated, all bolts tight, lubricated. Clothing, helmet & lights checked and ready. Please ensure you have a pump and a couple of spare tubes in case of punctures and a good secure lock.
It would be great to have some new & some familiar faces on this ride, you're all welcome & I look forward to riding with you.
Please be at the start point at least 15 mins before the ride start time, (9.45) ready to ride, so that we are able to get away at the stated start time of 10.05
