BL6 7SB

This is an all tarmac ride starting from the Great House Car Park (where the cafe is).
Please note, there are no Flat Hills on this ride
We head towards Anglezarke Reservoir (bit of a climb) heading towards White Coppice heading towards Brinscall via Wheelton. Then up to Tochholes to drop into Lower Darwen then going over the top to Edgeworth and Turton Bottoms. Would normally stop just before for a break (self catering) which also gets the views. A lot of the time we'll be able to see Darwen Tower, but only see!
From Chapetown we turn right and head towards Belmont then on up and over back to Rivington.
There are a few places we could stop on the route but would view this as a self catering ride although we could stop at the Black Dog if people wished. Decide on the day.
Sadly, for what ever reason, the website wouldn't let me upload the GPX.
