OK for mtb's... Its badged as a cycle route, but its surface is a disgrace in places!

Hope you have a good trip...
Thanks for the tip. I have the Sustrans app with routes 1 & 7 downloaded and have been doing a virtual tour of some sections via Google Maps street view just to get an idea of the terrain.
