ok, sorry for the lazy arse response earlier… Starting form Where ever you are in Leeds, head up the A660 towards headingley, from there head up weetwood lane and follow that to the ring road cross the ring road and then turn left up Adel lane, follow this until the road forks offering Arthington Rd and Eccup lane, I’d follow eccup lane. Follow this all the way to the A659. Turn left towards Pool in Wharfdale, In Pool, follow the A658 then turn left onto Leathley lane (B6161) follow this until you are up as near to the A59 as you can be bpthered going (its uphill here!) then follow the beautiful yorkshire lanes back towards Otley, then ride home along the A660.
nice route, not too far from civilisation but getting some good climbs on without needing to be too strict on route following. (basically, go to pool, go up the hill, come back down, go home.
