If you're fairly confident on your bike and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, our Steady rides are ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, rides take place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way. Rides are between 6 and 20 miles long, at a moderate pace of between 7 and 10 miles an hour. A ride of 12 miles in distance, this route is fairly undulating in parts and provides you the opportunity to improve your road awareness skills. The route starts at the Neiley Playing fields, home of Holmfirth Harriers Athletic Club. After navigating the early main thoroughfares it continues south west meandering through the country lanes towards Meltham. Eventually the ride will hit the highest point at Wolfstones, an excellent view across the Holme Valley looking towards Emley mast and Castle Hill. There will be plenty of stops for snacks if necessary as we leave no one behind.
