Is this a fun ride at the moment?

If you like riding fast down flat gravel roads then yes. If you're expecting the rocky challenge of a few years ago then forget it as it got filled in quite a while back.

As above, Chapel Gate should be quite good as its a gravel fireroad now, ok as a climb

OP - have you seen [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/peaks-pootle-december-1st-10am ]this thread[/url]

Assuming you are up on Mam Tor the descent to Roych Cloych is all weather. It's just up on Rushup Edge will likely be boggy with some quality OTB opportunities (been there done that)
