Start at the usual location, adjacent to the Leeds-Liverpool Canal, at Dowley Gap
http://www.bingleyharriers.co.uk/events/harriers-vs-cyclists/
£8 entry (on the day only)
Partially marked course. Over 16s only
5.5 miles/650 feet of ascent
A great race, good fun
Various sections favour both groups
The winner is not a foregone conclusion, that said, I've been there when Robb Jebb has shown up, as has Alistair Brownlee (both are members of the organising Club)

2007; 82nd/97 @ 54:16 (ride)
2008; 134th/149 @ 54:16 (ride)

2011; DNF (run, but branch in eye, so abandoned)
2013; 136th/207 @ 49:44 (run, but, lingering unfitness, from Plantar Fasciitis didn't help!)
2014; 110th/230 @ 50:27 (run, course re-routed slightly)
2016; 179th/245 @ 54:23 (run)
I think I'll be happy to scrape under the hour, given injuries/lack of fitness
