Pedal to the Pier: Manchester to Blackpool Off-Road
Love mountain biking? Sign up for this incredible charity bike ride now!
Choose from two distances:
100km off-road bike ride from vibrant Manchester to the bright lights of Blackpool
Or
50km off-road bike ride, also starting in Manchester to the beautiful Cuerden Valley Park in Preston.
With this choice of challenges there's something for cyclists of all levels. It's time to grab your mountain bike (or cyclocross/hybrid) and hit the off-road!
Starting from Salford Sports Village you'll follow the river and traffic free cycle paths, including the Irwell Sculpture Trail and the region's stunning country parks, before hitting the Fylde Coast for the final stretch. The celebratory finish is right under the iconic Blackpool Tower and once you've got your medal you can head off to get yourself the best tasting, and most well deserved fish and chips by the sea.
