Title says it all. I fancy a ride this afternoon but no ideas where to go, I live in Todmorden so somewhere near. I was thinking the infamous blue pig trail but no ideas where it is apart from its near Hardcastle crags!

I keep meaning to guide for a ride over that way but never quite made it. I was on my way over that way yesterday when my van broke down. Weirdly it works again now, which is nice.

Well thinking I may go for a quick jaunt to Bacup rd to do the descent from the tv mast. There is some good riding around just need someone to show me some more, hint hint.

Tod to Hebden along London Rd > descent into Hebden via Birthday X > up Jack Bridge to Nudey Light > road to Slack > Slack Tracks/Punch The Wall > up to Heptonstall > Blue Pig (BW from the middle of Heptonstall to Hardcastle Crags - look on a map) > along road back to Hebden > up Ali's Zig Zags > along the tops and link into Whirlaw Stones BW and follow mint descent all the way through the golf course into Eastwood. Ride home...

Usual answer (no idea if it's true) is to pop into Blazing Saddles shop.
