Hi
I've been meaning, returning the favour of doing a forum ride for some time now so here we go
This is a hilly event so some basic cycling distance / hill climbing will be needed for anyone who wants to join me though no one gets left behind.
Date: 9am Sunday 12th August 12 (Could change this ?)
Start / Finish: Marple. Co-operative. Stockport. Hollins Ln
Distance: 108km / 68 miles
Total Ascent: 2400m / 7874 feet
Total Time For Event: 6 / 8 Hours estimated
Goes over from Marple to Glossop then the climb over Snake Pass then pass Ladybower followed by a climb up Stanage Edge, before dropping to Hathersage for a cafe stop at Hathersage Pool'
Another climb then through Abney to the glider centre and Bretton, Ashford-in-the-Water and Kirkdale before another cafe stop at Monyash
Return to Marple through Millers Dale, Combs and Buxworth
Route / map can be seen here:
