Hirst Lock - Rodley Nature Reserve (cake2)

Join us for a ride to Rodley Nature Reserve where hopefully we will see some Dragonflies and various other wildlife

Bring your own snack and drink, the little shop should be open for biscuits and coffee

A mix of back roads, two stretches on main, trail and towpath

Leaving the carpark we will head through Roberts Park and pick up the road round Baildon, there is a slow climb but will be taken at the pace of the slowest rider. Don't be put off.

We will come out opposite Esholt Lane, head over and up to the village, take the path at the side of the Woolpack and along the YW road to the trail skirting the woods, head along to the end, a quick left and right we will head along up to Apperley Lane, turning down we will pick up the towpath and onto Rodley Nature Reserve.

Returning on the same route to Esholt, we will head along the main road to the railway bridge and take the path over the river and pick the towpath back up to Hirst Lock
