i'm trying to sort a route and on the picture below the red trail is a bridleway and the green is the pennine way, has anyone rode any of these? have you had much resistance riding the pennine way? any one got any other suggestions?

thanks in advance.

Ive ridden both quite regularly as its reasonably local to me. Never had any resistance on either as long as you are respectful to other users.....but strictly speaking the Pennine Way is a footpath but is easiler wide enough to accomadate both MTB and walker. Particully good if you start from Windy Hill picking it up from the PBW down from Hollingworth Lake.
