Sowerby Bridge Ride Social - Norland Loop

Starting from outside Sowerby Bridge Swimming Pool we will head along the towpath to West Vale before picking up Saddleworth Road. From there, the gradient increases gently as we leave the houses behind and head to the peace of Barkisland and Norland. After all the climbing, the road flattens out and we have a nice ride round the moor before the decent back to West Vale.

This is an all abilities ride, everyone is welcome whether you are a seasoned rider looking for some sociable miles or just starting your fitness journey. We will make sure everyone is looked after, we can stop as many times as people need to rest and we will support anyone and everyone who turns up and wants to ride a bike.

Please make sure you bring a bike, a helmet, gloves, a waterproof jacket, bike lights, a fully charged mobile phone, money and inner tube/pump.

If you don't have a bike, why not borrow one from the Bike Library at Happy Days Cycles on Wharf Street, Sowerby Bridge. (Please be aware you will need to do this prior to the ride as the bike shop closes at 4pm)
