It's Grim Up North

Start from Whalley and head up Pendle Hill, north to Malham Cove via Settle, then to Ingleton before turning south to cross Bowland Knotts, north again via The Cross of Greet before returning to Whalley via the Trough of Bowland. A big day out in glorious cycling country but with 207km, almost 4xAAAs and the potential for challenging weather at any time of year, grim if you don't like such things. There is of course the shorter 'It's a Bit Grim Up North 100' if you are interested but fancy something a little less lumpy. An editable routesheet and GPS link will provided after entry. Travel in either direction and start at any control or anywhere along the route using GPS or eBrevet.
