8. However, it's the coast we're heading for, meaning that you'll have to leave Dalby
and it's Red Route at Bickley unless you cycle back along the forest road after
playing a while longer. If you do leave at Bickley, take the BW opposite that leads
to a lane, then turning Left and Left again onto the track to Langdale end.
At the road turn Right and then Left, following this to cottages and farms, before
turning off onto the track on the Right as the lane bends left (just after some
barns).
9. This track skirts woodland before re-joining a tarmac road where you will need to
turn Left before joining the BW on the Right into Low Dales and Whisper Dales.
This track follows the valley through meadows before entering the trees once
more and taking you to another road at Reasty Hill.
10. Turn Left and cycle for approximately 400 metres until a BW just a ramshackle
farm on the Left, which looks as though it’s straight out of the pages of a Heartbeat
novel. Keep the church spire in view at Harwood Dale and head towards it,
exiting the track onto tarmac beside the church.
11. The road twists down gently through the hamlet, with the next track (BW) off to
the Left in the direction of Keasbeck Farm, to the side of a single storey cottage
with small wall, which is topped with a ornate iron railed fence. Follow this track
as it winds along, eventually joining the forest track that leads to the A171 road -
nearly there guys! Keep cranking it up.
12. Cross over this busy road with care before cycling along the gated BW opposite
and heading finally to the sea. This woodland soon throws you out onto the last
stretch of moorland heather, with an excellent section of singletrack down to the
road. Turn Left and follow this downhill for approximately 400 yards before taking
the BW which is slightly hidden to your Right. This track takes you across a short
stretch of scrubland to Ravenscar and the sea.
13. It’s finally time to unclip those pedals and take yourself down to the water. Unlike
Wainwright, we won't be offering you a pint...buy your own.
