Recognised it all apart from the bit from 5m30 which I presume is somewhere in Shining Cliff
dvatcmark, why risk the A6 when Cromford Canal runs parallel and is a far nicer (if slower) ride
My usual route is to park at Whatstandwell next to the canal, head up towards Crich on the road to top of Crich Chase, dive in there and take a route to the bottom, (i think its nicknamed Belfast Sink?), pop out onto the canal and either left to Shining Cliff (don’t do to often as linking back to Black Rocks the easiest way without any major road traversing involves getting across the caravan park which is private property) or right back to car, up Worksworth Road along Intake Lane and to top of Black Rocks, play around on the top for a bit then down there on the fast trail that runs parallel to the High Peak trail to Holmesford Cottage (2nd last bit in the vid), across back to the canal (some pushing on footpath required), left to Cromford, up to Stalkholmes (usually pushing up the steep bit) past Riber Castle and down through Bow Wood to Lea Bridge, then back along canal to the car
3 decent climbs all on minor roads, rest offroad
I tend to try and do it when it’s quieter as much of it is a little cheeky, but seemingly tolerated, there is lots more in the area but some is a lot more sensitive with nature and locals
