Starting point

L40 5RZ

Burscough Wharf, Liverpool Road North. Meeting point in the adjacent Carpark accessed via Lord Street & Smithy Walk.

Circular route around Ormskirk on predominantly quiet roads and hardly a hill in sight, not a proper one anyway. Route heads out anti-clockwise from Burscough and takes in Bescar, Scarisbrick, Halsall, Lydiate, Aughton & Bickerstaffe. Coffee stop will be at the Hayloft in Lydiate. We'll aim to ride at a steady pace of between 10 and 12 mph on this one, that way we can all stay together, enjoy the scenery and most importantly, have a natter on the way round. Please try to arrive at least 15 mins before the ride is due to set off, not very pleasant hanging about waiting for latecomers, especially not at this time of the year. Try to bring along a couple of spare tubes to suit your particular wheel and tyre combination and please do check your bike over before setting out, tyres inflated, all nuts & bolts tightened, chain lubricated, etc. Easier to do it at home than find out there's problem when you get to the start. Our group is called WBCCC Social, if you fancy joining us, or would simply like to find out more about us please click on the following link:- https://www.goskyride.com/SCG/GroupDetails?GroupID=2463
