Come and join us on this beautiful route that takes in some fantastic views of the Halifax countryside. This is a 8 mile double circular route around Norland Moor, a site of special scientific evidence. You are almost at the very top of the area here and can hug the contour line so there is very little change in gradient around the whole of the route. This ride is ideal for anybody who would like to get a bit more confidence riding on the road without having to do a huge distance. The scenery around is a feast for the eyes but please, remember to keep your eyes on the road every now and then!
