This ride takes us up the steady climb of Loxley Road to Damflask, where we turn left and continue along the side of the reservoir until we reach Low Bradfield. From there we have a long steady climb up Blindside Lane, which winds through the trees before emerging onto open moorland with beautiful views across Dale Dyke and Strines Reservoirs. At the top of Blindside Lane we turn right and continue across the moors to Mortimer Road, where we turn right and pass the Strines Inn. There is then a steep descent and a moderate climb followed by a flattish section across Strines Moor and another steep descent and moderate climb. We then turn right and continue down past Agden Reservoir to Low Bradfield. We'll stop at the Flask End cafe for coffee and cake before continuing along mostly flat or downhill roads back to the start.
