Is there an up to date map anywhere online for Gisburn? Only ever been once 2 years ago on a training course and so don't think I saw half of the stuff there and I believe theres been some new stuff built since then.

Or is it all waymarked well? Will be starting/ending the ride from the D&P at Tosside.

Both the red and blue routes are well signposted.

And it's easy to follow the signs.

DBW, you don't need a map. It is all well waymarked.
The routes all officially start at Cocklet Hill Car Park but if you want to start from D&P, then you simply follow the fire road up, past where the new "Hope Line" drops away to your left, to a signposted right hand turn climbing through an old quarry.

Cheers - so heading into the old quarry and just follow the red markers. Anything else I should be doing whilst I'm there? Any little fun diversions/options I need to be aware of?! Going to do the new Hope line on the way back to the pub.

You've got it.
Anything else....the downhill track is just a bit further along that fireroad, if that floats your boat. You can't miss the drops leaving the fireroad on the left. Nothing mega serious to phase a trail bike.

nbt,
Hope Line starts where the first red dotted "up" track meets the fire road from Tosside. Can't miss it.
