youramericanlover-
It’s a good route choice- it’s what I do- but I’m usually on 35mm marathons or bigger and gears! Either way it’s a sod of a hill.
Libby’s in Marple bridge high st is a great cake stop- back garden over the river for bikes. Norfolk arms on the corner as you come into Marple bridge good for beer and food- big front garden where you could sit with the bikes. Dutsons on the high st does ice cream but no bike parking

I guess you know but the route from Marple bridge up through brabyns park and over the canal to winnington is totally rideable but it’s rocky and muddy at the moment so might eat road tyres. Good route choice though as straight up station road into Marple is a fucker
I live two mins from the bit where you join winnington road in Marple so if anyone wants to pm me for a mobile number I’ll be around in case of any emergencies, mega bonks, run out of water etc?
