I can cycle at a constant 15mph on the road on a mountain bike with big chunky tyres with uphill sections etc etc so assuming flat I would go slightly faster.

my thinking is I live near the A6 (gotta go up a big hill though), can cycle straight down there, then jump on the A57 somewhere (past the dogs I think) and then follow the A57 to Hyde
Probably be slightly longer distance wise, but 2 roads are easier than loads of roads, especially is some of the roads are manchester city centre!

actually thats not a good idea, as last time I used it when going to wales it took me to the top of a quarry via a track on some fields.
