Many thanks to everyone on this thread. I had a great time yesterday (despite the weather). The first photo was taken the evening before when I was 'testing' the start of the route – probably quite apparent from the sunshine 🙂

It was an awesome ride: thanks to everyone again!

Stayed in the bunkhouse at All Stretton which was pretty nice; I had it all to myself and it was right on the start of the route I ended up doing – all in all pretty handy 🙂

on my to do list as well yer jammy beggar
Sadly DONK wants to treat kill me with a 43 mile 7000 ft + Lakeland trip instead. When I recove rfrom that say Octobe rtime I might do it.
