Peak District loop: Route suggestions

Was planning on going and doing Cutgate with Stan (my Sonder Transmitter with rigid Travis Prong Boost) and a buddy. But whilst preparing route choices and which line to take I came across this

https://public.eagleapi.io/magpie/time- ... 21377&vars[ipcTags.contentId]=321377&vars[magpie_data.ga_id]=1175486326.1536534468

Basically Keepers of the Peak and RideSheffield are saying similar to what I was concerned about already. Dont want too much hike a bike or deep horrible ruts where me and Stan might get stuck. Nor wanting to mess about beong responsible for creating extra paths which might affect the coutnryside/natural thingies etc.

Pls can someone suggest - with a gpx or strava route link preferably - a nice loop closeby. More north Peaks is better. Something well drained preferably and around 20 to 30 miles??

Thanks BBs

Your link isn't working, but I'm guessing it's summat about the bog of doom and/or mend our mountains.
If so, fret not, as Cut Gate is currently in good shape according to recent reports.

Should the weather take a turn for the worse, then there's always the all-weather Kinder loop described by Vertebrate Publishing on their blog.
