Stake Lane – Mytholmroyd

A local byway direct from Mytholmroyd to the tops, this climb is super tough and if you make it to the top without stopping or putting your foot down you have earned the right to brag. This climb offers both a mix of extreme gradient of 17.4% maximum and technical sections that require pure power and a bit of luck. If it is wet the chances of clearing the middle section are slim and the top section of the climb has running water the majority of the year. Climb status very hard (BLACK) and (Cat 4).
