Lots of lovely quiet country lanes if you road ride.
There are a few bridleways, however I don't think they really go anywhere.
The best place would be either Poynton and up around Lyme park, or a really good place is the Roman Lakes, Marple near Stockport.

When are you coming up? There are enough posters in the vicinity to [s]rip your legs off[/s] sort you out with a [s]beasting[/s] nice ride. As Bunnyhop says there's very little legal stuff around the edge itself, but plenty of stuff a short drive away - there's our mob out of marple, the clarion out of stockport, the white nancy boys out of bollington, the manchester mountain bikers all over the place...
