Matt and Lisa leaving Dunsop Bridge
Sunday's ride departed from Clitheroe.
The ride headed north through Bashall Eaves before turning right to Waddington, through West Bradford, Grindleton and towards Bolton By Bowland. We had our coffee stop at the excellent (very popular amongst cyclists) at The Garden Kitchen garden centre after 12 miles. The food and drink here is served from a shepherds hut and is in paper cups / plates. Seating is available both indoors and outside.
From Holden we doubled back on ourselves for a couple of hundred meters before once again heading north over the fell to Salidburn. Absolutely stunning views from this stretch of the Lancashire Cycleway. From there we head west to Newton for our lunch stop at Dunsop Bridge after 22 miles where we met Matt. Post-lunch we returned to Clitheroe via the edge of Longridge Fell - in total around 34 miles and 2400' of climbing. Beautiful weather, stunning views and great fun!
