Can anyone reccomend an epic ride around here?

I have done loads of OS mapping rides - some have been excellent but I am interested to see what others have done and if anyone has a map of an epic ride?

Thanks

    hi, here are some of my favourite routes in the peak district,
    have you tried this one:

    http://www.bikemaps.co.uk/ladybower.htm

    the 30m route (rawhide!!) should keep you busy for a good few hours! its a great ride, but give yourself plenty of time, there's some big climbs in that!! (last time it took about 5 hours to complete).
    for a good out and back route i'd recommend cut gate (will be a bit boggy in places at the mo),
    or if you don't have all day there is the classic hayfield-edale loop taking in jacobs ladder, hollins cross, rushup edge, mount famine and coldwell clough back to hayfield (about 16m)
    cheers
