Lancashire Group Wednesday Ride.

This week on Wednesday the 3rd of March there will be a ride on the West Pennine Moors, from Darwen to Rivington and back. The route will be about 26/30 miles in length, leaving Bull Hill, Darwen at 9-30am, Tockholes at 10-20am, the Cottage Tea room at Brinscall for elevenses at 10-50am and arriving at Rivington for about noon. The route is a large figure of eight, Tockholes being the crossover point and is over 90% off-road. The loop of the figure of eight from Tockholes to Rivington and back is about 18 miles, if anyone would like a shorter ride. My thoughts are to run this ride, with slight variations on the 1st Wednesday of each month this spring and perhaps through the summer, dependent on member's interest. Please give me a ring for further information, or to let me know you are coming. Thanks, Brian Parkinson, 01254 772983.
