Burscough /Billinge Loop . my 200th ride according to Lets Ride !!

A new route for The Satdy Club , using some roads that we have used before . Heading out of Burscough towards the Ring O Bells , then towards Westhead , before skirting around the back of Skelmersdale and in through the back of Rainford , we eventually pick up the Rainford bypass and along The East Lancs Road cycle path . We then detour off at Clinkham Wood where there is a lesser known hill to some called Moss Bank Hill , it is quite steep but very short . We go over the top and then climb up into Billinge . There is the option of Buttylicious here , or about another 2 miles on at Kings moss there is Fir Tree Farm Café. We then head over to Tower Hill which is part of The Ride 45 route , before heading over Ashurst through Dalton and Newburgh before heading back into Burscough . Ive tried to include a few hills , but kept it down to 30 miles as it could well be bad weather .
Please check your bikes over the night before and make sure you have a few tubes to fit your bike , as well as a means of inflating them . We will ride at a nice steady social pace , and no one is to go forward of the ride leader unless told to do so , there may be a couple of points to stretch your legs if required .
