Wheel Do It! - High Bradfield and Walker Edge (with Paul)

This ride has some moderately challenging climbs but has some lovely views to reward you for the effort. We'll set off from the beginning of Loxley Road and climb steadily up past the Admiral Rodney and continue past Damflask Reservoir and on up to High Bradfield. After passing through the village we'll continue climbing and take a right and along some quiet lanes that take us along Walker Edge, with great views towards Broomhead Reservoir. We'll then turn left, cross Penistone Road and drop down to a right turn that takes us onto Mortimer Road. We then have a few more undulations before we pass the Strines Inn, where we'll stop for a coffee before continuing back to Low Bradfield and returning to the start. As on any of our rides, we'll take our time and there is no pressure to go faster than you want to. We never leave anyone behind!

COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS
This ride is limited to a maximum of six participants. Please do not attend if you have COVID symptoms (new, persistent cough; fever; loss of sense of smell or taste) or if any of your household has symptoms or is isolating. Maintain social distance throughout the ride, including at the start/finish and the café stop. Bring a facemask for use at the café stop. Another ride will be leaving at the same time, so please join the group for this ride (look for Paul, tall bloke with yellow helmet) and maintain separation from the other group.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PARTICIPANTS
We recommend that all participants wear a helmet. Please make sure you wear appropriate clothing for the weather. As usual we do expect you to have ensured your bike is roadworthy and that you have carried out basic pre-ride checks; we recommend that you also carry at least one spare inner tube, a pump (CO2 inflators are also highly recommended). It is also a good idea to carry a spare chain link that matches your bike’s chain (e.g. 9, 10 or 11 speed). If you have a mechanical problem we will do our best to assist you and/or lend you an inner tube or repair kit if we can, but it is always best to be self-reliant. Don’t forget to bring money for refreshments and a mobile phone.
