Pennine Bridleway Relay

[Danbert Nocurry]

Having mountain biked it a few years ago (the whole thing) it is actually easy to follow, unless those chavs have been up switching signs. I should be doing it, not sure of the leg yet though, maybe the left one.

Vince just out of curiosity did you at any point have to “Get off and milk it” or was it all cycle-able and therefore hopefully all runnable?

That'll be leg 3 the same as Widdy and myself NotonyourHelly.... 9.5 miles 1570 ft of climbing - i'll look out for you.

Sounds good danbert, do you remember me I think we only met once at Rivi Pike.

I take it your injury free now then

Cheers

From what I remember, the majority is signed and ridable (depending if your calves were up to it. The first section has loads of gates (we worked as a team opening and closing gates) One bit was hairy on the bike, but ridable by the fitter ones. As it is designed for horses as well, I should think it has been fairly well maintained over the years (hopefully!)

Good man Vince, you have now idea how comforting and reassuring that reply was.

I reccied leg 4 last week. Its all well marked and the tracks are easy to follow especially if your using the route description.

[Bog Trotter]

I will be there, don't know what leg yet until team captain tells me!

I've done leg 3 and leg 5 in previous years, enjoyed both but leg 5 is probably favourite out of the two.

Anyone got a good link to a marked up map?

Route descriptions are provided by the organisers. I've attempted to tie these in with the OS maps. Use them at your peril. I have not been round legs 3 or 5 myself.
