[Closed] keighley bike routes

I don't live over there anymore (so this is based on my riding 10 years ,or more, ago !) but down Altar Lane (side of St Ives Golf Club) used to be a blast. Also Harden Moor between Harden Road and Guide Pub (if it still exists ?). You can get down from Cross Roads to Cullingworth on Bridleway. Just get a map and you can put it all together. Further away Ogden Resvr, Oxenhope etc.

I'm sure they are more routes on the 'net too.

i live in Oxenhope (bet you couldn't have guessed 😆 ) if i want a quick loop I do a modified version of Bingley Bash. I ride all over and still think its one of the best routes I do.

You basically take a few cheeky paths around Oxenhope, up on to Black Moor, Shoe Shine, steps behind old 5 flags, down to Hallas Bridge, traverse across to top of Wilsden, down towards Malt Shovel pub using a really nice cheeky descent, up to St Ives (main entrance) first left up really steep techy ascent, onto Harden more, devils drop, guide pub, follow towards 3 acres pub but turn right a few tracks prior, nice little steep techy descent to bridal path (my GF tore a her shoulder ligaments here recently)- traverse along back to main road, cross road by council tip, steep ascent to moor, then road to Black Moor again. Finish

My GF rode it recently with a group that included Tracey Mosley, her partner grew up around here and commented that it a route he rode alot. If your fit you'd have it boxed off in 1hr 10 mins,

thanks very much, will give those ago. only ever really done the harden loop that way.

Cottingley Woods is worth adding into Oxnop's loop.

yeah, i like cottingley woods.

def the quarry on harden moor for quick blasts, lots of exploring to do there and st Ives estate is littered with cheeky trails.

You nip out to Skipton and do Sharphaw. Been great over summer but getting a bit boggy now!
