Ellen Holme Rd to Sykes Lane (Luddendenfoot)

This is another short climb in the Luddendenfoot area covering 0.8 miles with an average gradient of 6.8% and a maximum of 15.3%. The first 3rd of this climb is really easy and the road even descends slightly in parts, however once you go under the railway the challenge begins and the tarmac ramps up. After the first real rise there is a short descent before you hit a wall of tarmac all the way up to Pinfold Lane. Climb status very hard (Double Black) and (Cat 4).
