Cycle Steps | |
1. Circular ride to Thurgoland using mostly quiet small roads. Busy section through Wortley. Some poor road surfaces with steep sections up and down hill. Difficult in a large group due to the narrow section over the bridge near Tankersley. Also the steep gradients do not help group cohesion. There are few places to stop and regroup. | |
