I'm ooooppppppp t'north again anyone fancy a Saturday ride? Possibly involving the train (every hour at 14min past), broken road, edale, hollins cross, more edale, jaggers clough, the beast's brother, Rowlee farm (the road climb with that realy steep corner), potato ali, cuthroat bridge then back aloong the road, possibility to make it longer(cut gate?, back the way we came?, blaka moor) / shorter depending on how people feel. And if anyones up for a few beers in the pub on Saturday night as well....................... I may be out on sunday as well, but geting back to Reading in the evening can be an absolute mission.

righty, if anyones up for it heres the plan,
meet at the station at arround 10am, catch the quater past train (buy a return ticket, its only 50p more and gives us some flexibility later)
If anyone want to meet in the peaks themselves then quater to at hope station.
Bring cash/sandwiches as its going to be long ish day, geting back to sheffield at arround 6 ish, so bring lights if you have them(if not im sure well have enough for at least one person at the front and back with lights) in case we get caught out in the dark.
Route TBC, but probably similar to what i suggested above, maybe mod it and go straight for the roman road, beasts brother, then aim for (and possibly fail if its muddy/hard going) the far side of cut gate then back again.
