Found this site the other day whilst looking for details on Trooper Lane (Halifax) & Lee Lane - 'aka' Shibden Wall' (also Halifax area) for someone on FaceBook

There's a few other climbs in there that should feature in the '100 Greatest Cycling Climbs' book
I've run (well part-way,& walked the rest) of Trooper Lane, during the 'Bluebell Trail 10' (miler)
http://www.stainlandlions.com/ (open 'Club-Races', then Bluebell 2013, for map/details)
Having watched the film clim, I'm impressed by the guys riding it (560feet of ascent in half-a-mile, so it's claimed!!)
