Starting from Bolton Arena, Horwich, riders will head out to Adlington, through Coppull and into Eccleston, where you will be greeted with your first feed station. From here, you will ride the country lanes, heading past Wrightington and into Standish where your second feed station will await. Once refuelled, you will make your way back to Bolton Arena where you will collect your commemorative medal.
Long route: Approx 65 miles (exact milage TBC)
The long route caters to the intermediate riders who have some experience with longer distances. It presents a moderate challenge, requiring a bit more endurance and stamina compared to short option.
