By trending more to the left you'll pick up the trod from White Pike sooner. On Monday I went pretty much to White Pike. It's worth a try. Also, it'd be easy to skirt the summit of Clough Head for those that wish to avoid it!

By the way, 28 mins down Doddick to the A66 sounds quick to me. I feel like I'd have to really fly down to make up for the path run at the bottom. It's all about what you're comfortable with though I guess!
