It's short, and sweet and free. Not worth a long journey to visit, unless you link in to other local tracks.
Good points:
Free, usually a good surface
Bad points:
Not much variety. No facilities (though is a car park), but not big enough to warrant them.
Would you recommend?
yes

Great Fun to be had in the peaks
started riding the peaks as my mate moved up there and i now use his place as a rather comfortable base!
only done a few rides here however. the 2 best ones I have done so far are mam tor/rushupedge and the other is ladybower/derwent reservoirs. both had plenty of fast bits, plenty of technical descents and technical climbs (pushed my bike up alot) but still every time i ride there i am walking away grinning.
plan to do edale soon, ive walked up jacobs ladder before and said to my mate when i did that i wished i had a bike on me at the time to send it!
cant wait to keep exploring up here. i cant see me ever getting bored.
Good points:
seemingly endless routes in a huge area
bit of riding for all abilities
amazing scenery
fun!
Bad points:
not having time to try all the different route options!
Would you recommend?

Inner city fun...but can you tell your in a city?
Went with a friend and my 8 year old son. We had a quick couple of loops and a session on the duel slalom.
Just needs a pump track next to the slalom to add to the great facility on offer.
Good points:
Great uphill.
Blue trail plus red options.
Easily accessible.
Excellent duel slalom.
Walkers and cyclist managed well with rocks at crossover.
