STW. Ride Ist. November – Marple Lakes (Stockport) – Page 2 – Bike Forum

Bunnyhop · 2009-10-05T09:26:20Z

Some interest was shown yesterday on Ton's ride to taste the delights of the lesser known bits of the Dark Peak. NBT. has offered to guide. It will be the usual up rocky bits, down rocky bits, flat bits, some road, some banter, some tumbles etc. These trails are mostly all weather ( should it rain). There is a cafe. carpark and toilet facilities at the Roman lakes. Linky to the start point to be put up later ('cos I'm rubbish on a computer and don't know how to do it). I think a start of 9.30 a.m. due to the clocks going back and one less hour of daylight.

Trekster - yes Mrs F won't be joining us so be happy to, we can sort nearer the time.

How long a ride and are there any food stops?

I have booked a cottage in the Peak District but I have strict instructions NOT to take a bike

That's ok, you're around the same size as me and I have spares, of varying flavours 😉

There is already the Dark and White Trailquest out of Hayfield on the 8th so its not really going to the best date for a group ride out of the Roman Lakes.

I dunno, there was a trailquest at Staveley on Sunday, but we saw very few riders...

We can easily avoid Hayfield and still get a cracking ride in.

DeeJay, does Mrs DeeJay not ride?
