Spen Valley Greenway Explorer

This ride was originally planned to go to Toby's Tea Rooms near Apperley Bridge, but the schedule of the towpath works was changed at short notice, making it a not so easy route to use. I have had requests to make use of the Spen Valley Greenway and thought this an ideal opportunity to give it a whirl. Meeting at Victoria Park Car park, Cleckheaton Road, Bradford, West Yorkshire, we will head down the Spen Valley Greenway and see where it takes us. There are several offshoots from the greenway, mainly off road. How far we go will depend very much on the group taking part. It’s a good idea to bring some water, snack to keep you going and money for if we stop at a cafe. Wearing a helmet is advisable; if you don’t have one please do not to worry you can still take part.  If you enjoy the bike ride and would like to come again perhaps you could look to buy one then.  We really welcome newcomers to our rides; we will always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind. All you need is a roadworthy bike, sensible clothing and a bit of enthusiasm. It helps to have a spare inner tube of the correct size - just in case. My contact number on the day is 07940 975 971 I look forward to you joining us.
