A steady 2 cake pootle starting at the Bingley 5 Rise Locks. From there we will continue along the towpath until the Granby Arms, where we will turn right and then left on to Granby Drive. We will continue along until we join Scott Lane, then join the slightly rugged (short!) Up hill stretch until we re-join the canal. We will then continue along the towpath to Silsden, before joining the quiet road to the Old Post Office cafe, where we will stop for a cuppa & cake.
After boosting energy levels we will head back to the canal until we reach Keighley Golf Club. We will then cut through Utley Cemetry and join the road briefly, before we pick up the cycle path in Stocksbridge. From there we will follow the cycle path to Riddlesden and re-join the canal at Tesco's, and make our way back to the 5 Rise Locks.

A mixture of canal, trail and road starting at the 5 Rise Locks and heading out to Silsden - 15 miles.

Mainly canal towpath with a short woodland trail, a short section of road and cycle path, finishing on the canal.
