Default Peaks route

The last right on snakes pass just before you hit glossop, look out for burns marks on the Armco. That's was me 6 years ago doing a fiery crash ball of death.

I'd actually recommend concentrating on the road but give it a cheeky nod on the way past

Oof, I usually ride the Snake the other way (Glossop down to Ladybower) but that section is nadgery and no mistake.

Although it's a bit easier at the moment as that mile or so has just been resurfaced with tar & chippings, so more than 20mph isn't advisable
