Breeze to Birtle with Pub Stop

Start at the front car park of the BURRS country park. Head towards the firestation and around the back of Tesco. We then head up Hornby Street towards Clarence Park. We then go up Lowes Road where we head into the countryside, past the golf course and through Birtle.

Weather and time permitting we could stop for a drink and a packet of crisps at the Pack Horse. We will then head down the hill and onto Rochdale Old Road. We then ride down Willow street and follow the river Roach until we arrive on Manchester Road. We will then go back to the firestation and the Burrs via Buckley Wells. Please make sure you have lights on your bike in case it’s going dark on the way home and wear bright clothing if you have it.

Also have a spare inner tube just in case. The majority of this ride is traffic free although we do have to use a couple of roads. There are a couple of hills but no one will be left behind. If we put a pub stop in we may take a little over the 2 hours.

Places are limited so please book online
