"From Tickled Trout head E on A59, turn L at lights onto B6245 to Ribchester, then Longridge but turn R before town onto B6243 at Corporation Arms. Follow this into Clitheroe, past train station then L onto B6478 towards Waddington. Continue to Newton-in-Bowland, bear L through village to Dunsop Bridge then R after DB. This road takes you up a valley onto the moor ( v pretty) past jubilee tower. When you start to drop off the moor there is a steepish descent to a crossroad at Dolphinholme turn R ( think its signposted to Queernmoor) keep on to a nasty T junction, Turn R to Caton. T at Caton turn R onto A683 to Hornby then Melling, watch out for L sharp bend immediately after bridge over river following a nice straight. Turn L at T junction and Devils Bridge is about 500 yds on the left."

With a possible meet up at Hartside, time permitting.
If you guys sort a run up to Hartside let me know and I'll sort a meet up from our side down maybe about 1ish or something as it's a good 2.5 hours south from Edinburgh alone on biking roads
