SAFE and easy guided cycle rides are to continue through the winter after proving popular with Pendle residents.

Pendle Forest Cycling Club will lead rides on the third Saturday of each month after being impressed with the friendly atmosphere created by autumn events. Rides start at Pendle Leisure Centre, Colne at 11am and will include a cafe-stop. Routes will be off-road as much possible and are designed to be suitable for beginners and families.
