Cheers!

There's some nice stuff around Clapham/Settle - nothing too hardcore but quite nice. It'll be wet at the moment though I imagine. You can also do a tour around Ingleborough, not tried it myself though.

Follow track North West under viaduct and then bear left ( south west) SD 751 800 to follow bridleway along Scales moor to Twisleton Scar End SD 698 755
Sharp left and down for final drag up the road back into Ingleton.
