Great descent down Mam Tor, some nice little sections to it. The top half does get a little slippy in wet, and it can get a little rutty but it’s great fun. Just pick your lines well especially at the top. There’s some potential for pedal strikes and in the wet you may get some sideways action. Awesome from top to bottom.
