...the Dark Peak Kinder circuit for the first time and its proper gruelling but very rewarding. I can't believe its ONLY 22km.

I especially liked Rushup Edge and the descent into Roych Clough. The last climb from Coldwell Clough to Jacobs Ladder is immense. A real legs and lung buster. I managed to clear it up to a certain point but then it became impossible for a mere mortal like me. Has that climb been successfully achieved?

I usually ride varying loops around L'bower (and have done for some years) from the Dark Peak guide but have decided to try further a field.

Any other recommendations?

this is stw, there are never two answers (except to SRAM vs Shimano) ๐Ÿ™„

"I just rode", for me, implies that he nearly didn't make it - so given what he said I think we should stick with that
