From the car park at the Drinkwater Park entrance we follow route 6 then the Outwood Trail to reach Ringley. After a coffee stop at Branch 14 cafe (M26 1DW) we head into Ringley village then around Clifton Country Park to follow route 6 back again.

Mainly off road on a good track. 1 very small road section (which you can walk along the pavement for is preferred), 1 minor road section (through Ringley village)

Branch 14 coffee house is very welcoming to cyclists and couldn't be friendlier.

Please bring a spare innertube and puncture repair kit, also enough water.

First-timers welcome!
