This is a super short climb at 0.6 miles, the first section is easy on Boy Mill Road however once you cross the railway bridge this climb becomes a real challenge. With an average gradient of 9% and a maximum 16.1% this climb earns it very hard (Double Black) and (Cat 4) status.
Very Hard – Double Black
A Very Hard – Double Black climb will feature super technical difficulty and really challenge amateur and profession cyclists alike. Climbs of this nature are likely to have an average gradient over 10% and sections over 15% gradient make these climbs seriously tough. Calderdale has a number of road and mountain bike climbs that sit in this category.
Distance: 0.9 km
