Blanchland & Edmunbyers, two of the finest bits of singletrack. 19.5miles, 1934ft climbing. Bit windy, but dry and fast 😀

(a throbbing 643 feet of ascent)
Blanchland/Edmundbyers was one of the 1st routes I ever did, about 20 years ago! Haven't done it for about 7-8 years now.
The names are all coming back from that area, Pennypie House, Embley Fell, Ladle Well, Hangman Hill, the Broadway, Sinderhope Carrs (cheeky), ahh, memories.
Is that track from Baybridge to Riddlehamhope a bridleway yet? cos it should be!
essel - me too! on an old apollo when i was a kid and my dads friend took us out!
Mostly Crank It Up, Freight Train and A-Line for me yesterday 🙂 Lifts to the top, obviously.
We live in Ebchester, so it's only 7miles.
agentdagnamit - Member...didnt make it out, feel like the guy above.
I did get out and i look like the guy above.
Much work to do over the next year!!
I can't figure out how to put a picture of the map up, but here's what I did today: http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/view/51998144/
Met some STW-ers (hi P20 and Ahsat!) and generally had a lovely afternoon out on the moors!
Not sure I'd do the trudge up to Bolt's Law again though - seemed like a lot of hard work for a very meagre downhill, although it was a nice view. The trail across Edmundbyers Common, however, was ace!

Small loop around Ben Nevis with a bijoux amount of climbing and 4 trips to and from the campsite. About 80 km I suppose. Too tired to work out how to do a map thing.

Blasted out to town on the singlespeed for some Oktoberfest Erdinger in Tyne bar yesterday and met my mates Fixie crew.. then today was a blast to get a feel for my new gatorskins..

Bit slow I know but it was a nice ride in the hills

I rode this route pretty much but missed out the furthest descent and ascent preferring to just go straight up to the top of the hill and back..
I also rode the cheeky pheasant pens twice and added a couple of easy road miles at the start and finish..
pooped.. 😀

yunki what software have you used for that attractive and informative graphic? Thanks in advance
What is the best free website/program for mapping your routes?
did a nice 50k over scout moor, crag & lee quarries and back over holcombe, with 1200m climbing - be good to record it somewhere!
lipseal - I just borrowed the data and graph from this [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/stw-forum-ride-east-dartmoor-3911 ]thread[/url].. I think foxyrider explains how to create the graph if you clicky..
orena45 - your link isn't working.. there were a few out and about on East Dartmoor yesterday.. perfect afternoon for it.. I imagine I passed you en route somewhere..
