Starting point




West Yorkshire
BD18 4DD

Slightly amended route. Cycling up from Hirst Wood, cross Bingley Road (we'll probably need to use the pelican crossing opposite Bromley Road) up to Kendall Avenue and then Moorhead Lane, into High Bank Lane, across to Stoney Ridge Lane and right down North Bank Road. Along Lee Lane, Shay Lane and Back Lane. Now avoiding steep dip on Egypt Street and taking a right into Dean Lane Head, on for 2-3 miles avoiding Denholme to pick up Trough Lane off Keighley Road at the New Coley Nurseries. On to the Dog & Duck taking a right, on to pass Leeming Reservoir into Oxenhope. Past the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway station and up to Marsh Lane. Then back country lanes to come out at top of hill in Howarth near the Bronte museum. After cafe stop taking route to avoid most of the main road to get to Cross Roads. Then up to Cullingworth and pick up cycleway over Hewenden viaduct. Onto Wilsden and back along Lee Lane and down to Cottingley. Straight after roundabout cross the road (pelican crossing) to take cutting around Cottingley Academy school grounds, to avoid very busy junctions near Sir Fred Hoyle Way dual carriageway. Then up Nab Lane and down Bromley Road and back to Hurst Lane.
