[#324042]

Drove over to Bingley yesterday via Cullingworth and it looked to be half decent riding country - lots of woods and BW signs. I've had a quick scan of the OS map and its confirmed my suspicions - lots of straight looking BWs and millions of potential cheeky trails.

Anyone local know of a decent ride around that area I might sample? Or show me around on Sunday?

Cheers
Dave

Harden Moor is all season paradise and full of quarried stone to play around on, lots of singletrack and lots of lines created by the moto trials bikes, you could spend a few hours up there and in St Ives Park.

I know a few 2 hour loops out of Bingley taking in Harden, Cullingworth, Wilsden, Cottingley.
There are a lot of bridleways but the best bits are cheeky.
I think SFB has the "Bingley Bash" route on the Bogtrotters site, but it doesn't take in some of the best riding in the area.

I could meet up for a ride but not for a couple of weeks.

Cheers guys. I'll have a look at the bogtrotters route and consult the OS map again.

Simon - would be up for a ride in a few weeks - reason I was over that way was because I was dropping the frame into Triple-S powdercoaters to get it refurbed. Lovely ๐Ÿ™‚

My mate had some scooter parts done at Triple-S, they did a good job.
Can't do this Sunday, going to check it out Kielder before the Enduro thing, and next week I'm at a wedding.

ditto Harden Moor - then a cheeky trail across another moor near The Flappit pub, to pick up a b/w across Black Moor (above Flappit springs where the MXers play), over to Manywells; down Manywells & Hallas Bridge, over Nab Lane to Wilsden, then down through the woods (cheeky) to come out above The Malt Shovel in Harden
