Starting from near Curleys we will be doing a 20 mile ish loop which will include fly-bys past two lads, The Pike and Pigeon tower. mainly off road and gravel but a very short spell of road between bridal paths. MTB is a must NO HYBRID and a good level of fitness. Its not a technical route but there is some climbing to be done. There are fantastic views to be had as the leisurely pace will allow all to be taken in. We will be stopping at a HRS cake bonanza at about 2/3 of the way round so bring some 50p as these aren't to be missed.

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 arm yourself with spare inner tubes, bike levers and pump
