SOAP – why not Jacobs Ladder route? You’ll be frustrated with 3/4’s of the Cut Throat Bridge section. I always avoid riding it as I don’t like parallel ruts that then disapear into thick grit-stone quagmires. On a dry summers evening maybe different but not now.
Jacko maybe you missed my subsequent post:
SOAP- correction. I did your route last monday with two variations- I did Beast instead of Potato alley and I didn’t do Cut throat bridge- all was good.
I mistook Derwent Edge for somewhere else (I’m known for not knowing any names round there properly..).
Anyway. I still have a given-up attitude- if its advertised in every WHSmiths etc etc plus riders who you’ll always see up there why waste your breath? I once saw a pic of a cheeky trail that the bogtrotters had ridden down en-masse.
Ps. Some people need to take a chill pill (or have sex).
