This ride to Buckshaw follows the Leeds/Liverpool canal into Chorley where we will head off onto quiet lanes. There is a busy road section but this has dedicated cycle paths for us. We'll head on through Buckshaw towards Astley Park where we may stop at Cafe Ambio or onto the Old Vintage Tea rooms in Chorley. for a bite to eat, a drink and a chit chat. From here, we will be travelling through a busy town centre road for less than a mile where we will re-join the canal towpath back to Haigh.
Please bring a drink for en-route, money for lunch and of course, a spare inner tube.
Wearing a helmet is advisable but not essential.
The ride is a steady ride but shows as challenging due to the distance.
