Peak Biking -31st Oct 2011

Monday was a day off work so we decided to load the bikes on the car and head to the Peak.
We parked along the Road to Fairholmes and headed up the sharp climb passed Crook Hill farm which soon warmed the legs! Continue to climb up through the pastures with fine views over to Derwent edge (where we would be ascending later).
A great ride along sandy tracks and then through the trees with a cautious decent onto the reservoir road.


Having followed the road around the reservoir past Fairholmes it was the tough climb up to Derwent edge.Well worth the effort eventually giving the fantastic decent down towards Cutthroat Bridge.
The final section led us along the bridleway passsed the rear of Ladybower Inn with a final rocky section waiting to catch us out.
Another smashing day out completed with egg and chips in Hathersage!
