Wheel Do It! - Rapha 500 (7): Edale and Hathersage

This ride from Loxley Road takes us along our familiar route through Low Bradfield and up Blindside Lane before heading down to Ladybower and through the lanes to Edale where we'll have a cafe stop. We'll then double back and head through Hathersage and onwards up to Ringinglow, returning to the start via Lodge Lane and Rivelin Valley. There are a couple of longish climbs on this ride, which we'll take our time over (speed of the slowest, no-one left behind). IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PARTICIPANTS We recommend that you wear a helmet. Please make sure you wear appropriate clothing for the weather. As usual we do expect you to have ensured your bike is roadworthy and that you have carried out basic pre-ride checks; we recommend that you also carry at least one spare inner tube, a pump (CO2 inflators are also highly recommended). If you have a mechanical problem we will do our best to assist you and/or lend you an inner tube or repair kit if we can, but it is always best to be self-reliant. Don’t forget to bring money for refreshments and a mobile phone.
