I am pretty confiddent its not do-able (live 1/2 a mile away) and have been having a go for years. Surface is loose and bouldery and super steep!

I live in taddington and use that route regulary. On the first section I can get to corner before the gate then after the gate I can get to where it gets really rough. Instead of mbr challenging jacobs ladder this should be the test.

No though its been a few years since I tried
I now go down that way, taking the bridleway on the hairpin-ish bend down to monsal viaduct and then bridleway down and left a bit. Much better ..

Yeah I admit taking the bridleway off to the right is much better, but I'm on about going up
