Snypedales Country Park is a good starting point for a Lincolnshire Wolds ride. Though the park is for walkers only, half a mile on road and you have access to bridleways and single track for much of your ride across multiple routes. It is £1 to park but you have toilets and a picnic area for after ride recovery. Terrain is challenging at an intermediate level. This route has one short segment (50 yards-ish) that were too steep for me to keep my front wheel grounded but that gets you to nice high ground with great views :-)

This is a section that is not easy to ride through, uphill riding in a corn field, the surface is loose soil boulder, you can not ride quickly over it, it does take effort and energy to pass through this location
