About the route

Starting point

BL6 7AF


Heading out of Horwich, we cycle over the lumps and bumps to Belmont and enjoy the minor roads and narrow lanes of our neighbours. As always, this is a circular route so making our way back West, stopping at a tearoom before continuing through Chorley Moor and heading home. Although helmets are only recommended by law and not deemed to be essential, anyone not wearing a helmet will not be able to join the ride. Please be self-sufficient and bring spare inner tubes, bike levers, lock and pump. Don’t forget your pennies for the café stop. Also check your brakes and gears on your bike at least the night before.
