Tuesday 17/6/26 - 7pm from Oxfam, Colne Road

Normal service returns this week with a classic loop, taking us out (and up) to Holme bridge before one of my favourite climbs up to Linshaws. From there, we'll head to Scout D**e and Upper Denby, Lower Cumberworth and back via Kirkburton.

As it's (hopefully) my last Tuesday for a couple of weeks, regardless of what the weather has in store, I'll be at the Sportsman after for a social debrief.

p.s. I mentioned about doing the longest ride route (taking in England's longest climb, Cragg Vale) this week, but weather and circumstances mean you'll be enjoying that one without me next week all being well.

Tonight was the Huddersfield Star Wheelers Annual Women’s Hill Climb on Mount Road, Marsden.

Thankfully the rain stayed away, although the headwind clearly didn’t get the memo!

A huge shout out to every rider who pinned on a number and took on the climb. Hill climbs have a way of revealing exactly what you’re made of, and every single rider showed determination, grit, and plenty of courage out there this evening.

Well done to everyone who took part, volunteered, cheered from the roadside, and helped make it such a great evening.

Whether you’re one of the dedicated souls who organises rides, plans routes, sorts logistics, and makes sure there’s something for everyone.
