Starting and finishing in Bakewell, this ride is just over 40 miles on a mixture of gravel, bridleways and small roads. It includes Longstone, Shatton, Stanage, Froggatt and Curbar Edges. A good level of fitness is required along with good technical skills. It is an amazing ride which I absolutely loved. Enjoy! The route can easily be accessed from any parking in Bakewell.

To celebrate my birthday, I decided to set myself a challenge. I have spent a large part of my life racing in circles, so I came up with the idea of doing something completely different. I got a train to Sheffield from my hometown and came up with a gravel/ small road route which visited 5 favourite places in the Peak District. 60 miles later I'd be back home in Belper, hence 60 at 60 !

I have planned a 32 mile route starting from Cromford Wharf, south of Matlock. The aim of the ride is to share time with fellow subscribers, have fun and gain an insight into the local area. There are two carparks at Cromford Wharf, both are parallel to the canal. The one furthest from the canal, the second right hand turning, is cheaper and requires payment via cash. There are toilets on site ...

      That sounds epic!

If I won the tent it'd actually force me to get out and try bikepacking up here in Scotland after years of faffing about since COVID; potentially with my Son before he heads off to the wider world of University life. Might even share it with him if he gets the bug! All the best and thanks for the opportunity! :)

    I watch a lot of camping videos because it helps with my depression. Ive decided I am going to start going instead of watching and hope that it helps. I have zero camping gear so I thought well I'll search for a contest contest and start building gear. Another CZcamsr that I've been talking with suggested that I start with hiking say help with my depression. So I'm going to start that as well. I've been pretty bad so I need to do something or im going to have to take a visit to hospital tonlet them help. Im hoping i can do thi on my own.
