Riders gear up for Sunday

RIDERS of both two-wheeled and four-legged modes of transport can join in a fun event.

Oldham Countryside Service has devised two circular routes for horse-riders and cyclists to enjoy on Sunday. There is a choice of routes which cover 7km or 15km. The event starts at Strinesdale countryside centre, and anyone who takes part must book a place at a cost of £2, which includes a rosette for all who finish. Entry forms are available from Brownhill Countryside Centre on 01457-872 598.
