Just copying this from Elsewhere, although it is a road route it wouldn't do any MTB'ers any harm to maybe give it a try, as there are plenty of nice climbs on it that would certainly be of some training value as well as allowing you to cover some quality miles across the Moors and check out where Bridleways start so as to help out with route planning at a later date.

The route.
