    If your from Wigan then Rivington is on your doorstep almost. There are some nice loops you can ride and if you include a few runs down the Healey Nab downhill tracks it can be a right good day out. Plus the Great Barn does a cracking Bacon and Egg Barm and nice icecream which went down very nicely this morning thanks

  • rivi pike is a must, its great having somewhere like this on your door step, i am still aiming to get to the top via the short technical rocky route without dabbing a foot down but the down hill blast towards the dog hotel is worth it once your lungs are back to normal
