East Lancashire and the Ribble Valley offer some of the best riding in the county, from the M65 to Pendle Hill. We cover Blackburn, Burnley, Accrington, Clitheroe and Nelson.
Where riders get stuck around Blackburn
- M65 junctions 1 to 14: The spine of East Lancashire.
- A56 and A682 north to Gisburn: Long, fast A-roads out to the Dales.
- A59 through the Ribble Valley: Fast sweeping bends, popular at weekends.
- The Nick of Pendle, Sabden to Clitheroe: A steep climb over the shoulder of Pendle Hill.
Local knowledge
On the A59 and the Ribble Valley lanes, mud and gravel on the road after farm traffic catch out plenty of riders. Low-speed drops on the Nick of Pendle hairpins are common too: a snapped lever or bent peg is enough to end the ride. We bring the bike home either way.
Clitheroe, Whalley and the Ribble Valley villages are full of riders on summer weekends. If the bike stops outside a café or pub, ask if you can leave it in the car park while you wait, and give us the name of the place. On the M65 at night, junctions 8 to 10 are quiet and dark: wait behind the barrier.
