March Social Ride (Family Friendly)

Preston Pedals: Guild Wheel 1/2 Circular

This is an exciting family friendly alternative to the full Guild Wheel Loop. Setting off from the Butler Street car park entrance to Avenham Park (near the newly opened Preston Pedals bike hub) we make our way on the Guild Wheel over to The Whistle Stop Cafe for Cake and coffee. Leaving the Cafe we will take the Lancaster Canal towpath (riding in singles) past the Preston Millenium Locks were we will stop and watch the boats going up and down the double locks. We will then make our way through Haslam Park and rejoin the Lancaster Canal to the end of the Canal, passing the Cadley Canal Services, the Rainbow Bridge and Marina. On meeting Aqueduct Street we will make our way through Preston's Cycle network past the University buildings and onto Corporation Street, through the Fishergate tunnel and finish where we started.
