Easterly Loop from Waterloo Arms on the A6 t’other side of Buxton mostly on bridleways near/around Chelmorton. Should have been a figure of eight including a westerly loop but….

A superb night for getting lost in the dark

Notes

It the minibus can’t then we’ll just drive! Cunning 1st pint from El Pres & Croxy before the start.

For a Kersh route – suprsingly little pushing uphill – rather pushing across muddy fields & rock strewn paths instead! The route might have been improved by prior reconissance – 3 retracing of routes plus one asking for directions from friendly farmers wife tell the story.

However great to be doing new territory. Unicorn & Stockport in the Waterloo – Pete has salad and offers his chips to others!


However portions not quite up to biker requirements and puddings polished off too. Good to have the Doog back.
