This latest route takes in the quiet country lanes of the picturesque Forest Of Bowland. An area of outstanding natural beauty that also happens to include the iconic climb of the Trough of Bowland. 'The Trough' as it is known to locals is a firm favourite with cyclists and indeed with Tour organisers. After all, it's a regular feature in the Tour of Britain when it visits the North West.
