Proper bit of Derbyshire XC...

February 27, 2025,MTB in the Derbyshire Dales

An excellent day out on the mountain bike today. Really challenging but beautiful route made more difficult because of the ground conditions. Deep and sticky mud made it difficult to pedal and make progress. Worth it though for the challenge and the beautiful scenery

September 18, 2022,Up hill and down Dale

I did not climb almost 5000 feet on this ride, i think it was more like 2900. My watch obviously having a moment
