Starting from Bowdon Rugby Club you will set off with one of Joe Hall's famous Chorley cakes and head out to the Cheshire countryside. Head south through Cheshire into Staffordshire and then head around the stunning rocky outcrop that is The Roaches. The long route then heads out to Bakewell before returning via Tideswell and Buxton and a lovely finish through the leafy lanes of Cheshire. Waiting for you back at base will be more fare from Joe - one of his awesome pies and a cup of tea in your commemorative mug!
