Some good lanes around Leigh towards Wigan, and just beyond Bolton heading north.

Also Carrington, Lymn, High Leigh, Dunham Massey, Tatton and beyond Alti.

all are reasonably quiet coz most of the traffic is on the motorways or the A580(East Lancs).

What Chris said.

Up the M66 to Clitheroe, then Slaidburn, east to Long Preston, then south to Gisburn then Barrowford and your choice of route home.

Or, just belt around the M60, down to the Ashley area near Altrincham and play in the lanes down to Northwich, visit J&S and back.
