The route follows the Guild Wheel clockwise towards the UCLAN Sports Centre at Cottam and then takes the cycle path to Tom Benson Way. After crossing the road, we go past the lock and basin, where the Millennial Link joins the Lancaster Canal, and the magnificent art work celebrating the construction of the canal. We cycle along the tow path and into Haslam Park. A circuit of the park will demonstrate its history and beauty. After wending our way through a quiet built up area, we reach Ashton Park, another great park of Preston. We cycle a circuit of the park and then use pavements to reach the Marina for coffee, before returning to the starting point.

This route gives us an opportunity to view areas we often just drive past.

We cycle along cycle paths and very quiet roads through a housing area.

We will stop for coffee at The Beach Hut on the Marina towards the end of the ride.

Please wear a helmet and bring equipment to deal with a puncture. Please also bring a debit/credit card to purchase any refreshments you require.

We never leave anyone behind
