It isn’t a “trail”, it’s a public footpath. I’ve got nothing against cheeky use of footpaths where you can go unseen, but doing it on a summers day in one of the most popular areas of the Peaks will get you into bother.
No such thing as a footpath it’s just an archaic term and is pretty much obsolete now. As per Scotland’s access it’s a public right of way. There’s no legal reason why a public right of way shouldn’t be open for all the public to use whether it be by foot, on bike, by horse etc. being discriminatory by trying to restrict who can and can’t use a trail needs to stop as it’s extremely outdated way of thinking. Everyone pays through their taxes for upkeep of routes by the council so in turn should be allowed to use those trails in whatever fashion they like. What I find very odd is how walkers, bikes and horses get on ok in Scotland but in England we seem to have a militia of irate walkers who can’t get on with anyone. Out of curiosity when you go to Scotland do you also get irate at other trail users ?.
I can appreciate and hate the silly GoPro Fish eye on something like this and how crazy some peaks stuff is but gotta give kudos for the speed , control , politeness avoiding people/ just riding pretty carefully and then giving editing/ camera settings in description is brilliant.top mam.
Thank you mate I appreciate the kind words! Whenever I am riding riding I always make sure that I am not putting anyone in danger, and I am also happy to help out the people who support me by watching my videos, it’s the least I can do!
Watched with my lads after climbing this yesterday, they were both gobsmacked & called you crazy for doing this. I've been told by them that I have to subscribe. Well played sir!
Iv walked up it and it’s all fours crawling steep in places. Kind of reminds me of coming down snowdon steep. Might give it a go in the summer, during the week when not too many people about.

watch from 2:54 to watch me ride down the steep descent, and for some scenic drone footage of the hill!

Hahaha thanks man mega fun this was!
Drone footage really makes the views cinematic. I've walked down off Thorpe cloud on that it is crazy steep. Subbed!

It’s a footpath not a bridleway. Hence the comments from the walkers. Good skills but keep to the bridle ways you will give Mtb a bad name.
