(B) Port Sunlight to Dunham-on-the Hill; Manley and Barrow
This is a 52 mile total ride. Certain Riders should be fit and used to the distance and hills after the Morecambe trip! It is graded B because of the distance and number of hills to climb (2000+ ft total ascent). It is mainly on quiet lanes, on tarmac throughout. However depending on riders attending we could run it at C pace 10 to 12 mph rather than 12 to 14.
David Brewer will be Ride Leader. Start time is 10:00 from Port Sunlight station. Please arrive a little earlier for a briefing.
