Description

A continuously interesting route through Cheshire lanes into North East Wales. The hilly middle section from Chirk to The Horseshoe Pass summit boasts outstanding mountain views. Scenic return over Hope Mountain.
A challenging day out. Whilst this ride may be shorter than the Pistyll Packing Momma 200km it is just as challenging and some of the climbs are actually harder, but please don't let that deter you. The lower time limit is set at 12.5km ph that gives you an extra 1h45 to get around. To date no one has ever missed the final cut off time and no one has ever regretted riding it. The scenery is simply some of the best views on offer in North Wales and well worth the effort. The big climbs of the day are out of Chirk (with a big descent down Vivod), climbing out of Llangollen to Panorama, the Old Llangollen Horseshoe Pass and finally Hope Mountain.
