    hi there,
    I like doing the dark peaks route as well but do it in reverse if you wanna do a punishing ride!!!

    Climbtastic!!!!!!!!

    Park at the layby just up the road from the main ladybower car park to save a few quid.

    I may have an electronic copy of my route if you want a copy!!

    PM me if you do.
