Join Taz and Lisa on this fairly easy going 16 mile cycle from Queens Park to The Lower Barn in Rivington. With only a few inclines, it is ideal for those wanting to increase distance without the hills! This route has sections that are off road and mostly quiet roads utilising cycle lanes along the route. There is a short distance on a main road to negotiate but we will tackle this together.
