Looking on the map, am I right in saying the main climb up Winter hill from the south starts from just to the west of Montcliffe quarry? If I do that, are there good descents going back down the same side?
Thinking of riding out there from Manc and getting the train back, and have always wondered what it's like up Winter Hill. Worth a climb up?
san marino by the mast

dont gpo good friday whatever you do and that whole weekend whill likely be busy
Mail me and I can send you memory map stuff and let you know of other stuff there
Depending on the day I can possibly ride as well
you would not climb up form there and if you were you would be better off starting in Horwich
DONK and Lowey are the guys for Bolton routes I will e-mail them when I get in re this thread I live on the civilised dry side 😉
San marino is one of the best descents in the country IMHO [ without an actual mountain being involved the best i have ridden tbh
Got to be San Marino
Its cut up to **** up there at the moment
Get the train out to Horwich, climb up, down San Merino, into Belmont, pick up the Witton Weavers over to Darwen Moor, get the train back from Darwen. I used to do that run regular
Nice one - looks spot on. I was thinking of going out after work this week so it looks like that route might fit in nicely.
