Starting point




South Yorkshire
S6 6RU

A steady but challenging ride in a beautiful part of Sheffield with stunning views across the Loxley Valley and Dam Flask.

This ride is open to anyone aged 16+

We will start at the Admiral Rodney pub on Loxley Road and head up the long, steady climb towards the Dam. There we stay on the main road and start our first anticlockwise loop of Damflask with the first of the short but steep climbs before turning off onto a country lane down into Lower Bradfield.

We then head back alongside the Dam on New Road back towards Loxley Road and do the loop again but this time we will stop half way round for a cuppa and cake at the School Rooms Cafe in Lower Bradfield.

At the end of the 2nd loop we will turn right onto Loxley Road and head back down towards the Admiral Rodney pub. Luckily it's all downhill!

NB: This route does involve some hills on a main road which can become busy at weekends.
All riders must wear a helmet and follow the safety advice and guidance of our Guided Ride Leaders whilst out on the roads. Please bring a drink, a snack, a spare inner tube for your bike and money for any refreshments you wish to buy at the cafe.
