Formed over 10 years ago the club has around 30 active riders of all abilities. All local rides start 7.00pm at the White Bear pub in Barrowford. Away rides will usually require car transport to the start point. The website, facebook and twitter are all updated weekly with ride information, so you can easily find out which ride we are doing.
We welcome new riders to any of our rides, please let us know if you’ll be joining us on a ride
Thursday evening rides are social affairs typically 8 - 20 miles finishing at a pub. All rides will involve a number of hills but we always regroup at the top. There will of course also be lots of off road riding in between and there will always be some technical downhill. We can help you pick up better off road technique and how to get the most out of an MTB ride. Depending on the time of year you will normally need a reasonable power of white front light since many tracks are unlit and a red tail light for safety back on the road.
Sunday rides are usually 'Away rides' and would be upwards of 20 miles. Occasionally there will be a weekend away planned, visiting a trail centre somewhere in Wales, the Lakes or Scotland. Sunday rides aren't usually planned until after the Thursday evening ride, so check the website for details.
Pendle has lots of interesting tracks and trails that you may not know about, so come and join us for a ride
