   From Hayfield
  • As the Wednesday night rides neared midsummers night it was time to do a proper mountain bike ride, namely the CLASSIC Hayfield Edale Loop including the infamous descent down Jacobs Ladder, (another pic and the Loop Map)
  • Starting at 7.30pm and heading up to Jacobs Ladder via Kinder Reservoir.
  • The ride was approx 35km (22 miles) and included about 800m (1/2 a mile) of climbing
  • The ride was very technical on both the climbs and descents
  • Emmy's B and B
