Was up there today and yup it’s fast (running 2.25 Nevegals. fwiw), saw a few others and quite a few walkers. Had a great ride and the only puddles were along the dry stone wall before you drop to Fairholmes.

Killer bees well up to the job. Perfect for big rocks, wet or now. 2.4 so can run them a little lower than other tyres, they only struggle in mud. Perfect trail centre (and dry Peaks) tyres.

Any update on conditions today?

was perfect and dry – only one muddy puddle on cut gate the rest is dry

I rode Cut Gate for the first time today. Crossmarks front & back absolutely fine. Nearly had a big off coming down the zig zags trying to negotiate a couple of riders walking up; didn’t embarrass myself too much!
Maybe Langsett is the better start end as took a long time driving back through Glossop to get to Manc.

Read this last night and was inspired to throw the Sub 5 into the car and head up the M1 to Langsett. Used it as the start point of the Glossop-Cut Gate route http://www.theedgecycleworks.com/mtbroutes/glossop-cut-gate and had great days ride. I seemed to have the whole of Cut Gate to myself until I came across a young lad sitting by Mickelden Beck waiting for his dad to bring the pump he’d forgotten!!

Managed to incorporate an out and back from Langsett into a work trip from Manc to Cambridge :))) soooo dry!

A real buzz!! Also had a quick spin along Howden Res for the views 🙂

Must be one of the best quick fixes :))

Cheers. Paul
