Rochdale MTB Ride
Event info
Now an established fixture on the RIDE IT calendar, this ride is a favourite amongst staff, most of whom are mad for a day of challenging off-road trails in the depths of winter! Regardless of the time of year, the trails tend to stay firm whatever the month, allowing a good pace and chance to enjoy some exhilarating descents. The route heads north to the stunning Watergrove Reservoir, before heading towards Todmorden on an absolutely breath-taking remote trail. Rough Hill awaits before a spin through Hades and final push back to base. This ride is full of epic climbs and challenging terrain, but the incredible scenery, phenomenal trail-riding and adrenaline filled descents make it all worth it.

Random driver account: "cyclists should be made to wear hi viz like workers do on a building site"....
"The algorithm" served me an older JV video last week which I now can't get out of my head....
