Over and under the bridges to Sowerby Bridge and back

Sky Ride Local in Calderdale

This route is as flat as you will find in this area! Join us for a pleasant ride along the canal to Sowerby Bridge where we will take a break before returning the same way. If you’ve never ridden this route before you will be amazed at the scenery and wildlife so close to the busy roads of the Calder Valley.

If you’re fairly confident on your bike and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, our Steady rides are ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, rides take place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way. Rides are between 6 and 20 miles long, at a moderate pace of between 7 and 10 miles an hour.
