Next Sunday's ride is pencilled in for Blaze Farm. We went there recently (instead of Peakview), so was wondering if you fancied somewhere else.
We've (I've) not been to the Candle Factory in quite a while, it's not too far away, and we can mix up the route there to get more miles in leaving us a shorter ride home in the fading light.
And if the weather is bad, we can go more direct.
Thoughts? Let me know and I'll put a couple routes together.
Cheers.
Kris.
Or, we could go to tittesworth visitors centre at the foot of gun hill?
Lots of room, and great scones!
I'm actually going to be out this Sunday and I would be game for the Candle Factory.
Candleworks sounds good to me
Candle factory sounds good 😀
but do they sell great scones?
No beans on toast at the candle factory either, quite stringent up there.
I'm plotting a route that will make you earn your beans on toast.
Includes snake pass and mam tor. 120 mile loop. Not for the feint hearted.
Gonna save it as a pre-llanberis training run...
Shit the bed!

so whats happening on the long run on sunday? rather than blaze farm at buxton isnt there a cafe at rainow thats pretty good? about same mileage perhaps more perhaps less and still hilly. and im sure someone knows the cafe im talking about. if all else fails i know a lovely couple in rainow that let me use there phone and offered me a full sunday roast when i got lost on my first TT 😛
Weather doesn't look great. Candle Factory sounds good to me with a big loop. Plan away Kris
perhaps not 120 miles though!
I'll post a route tomorrow. I may or may not be out, so can someone with GPS stand in as a backup? Or someone who knows the candle factory?
