The recent Peak Park Festival of
Cycling was a successful series of events. Here are a few pics of the stands at
Thornbridge Outdoors on the final Saturday, including our own joint Sustrans and
PCL stand (Greg Thomas and Dave Clasby are chatting to members of the public). Good
to see some of the members of our group there during the day! The weather was excellent.
The evening before, five out of
six expected riders turned up in pouring rain for a ride which I led from
Parsley Hay. I had done the ride the night before, in better conditions, and
decided that my original route was perhaps tougher than the ‘moderate ride’
described in the blurb! So I shortened it for the real thing, going first up
the HPT to Sparklow, then taking NCR549 and the beautiful, long descent of Long Dale to
the outskirts of Hartington. A toughish climb to the Signal Box, then the TT
back to Parsley Hay. 13 km. Everyone enjoyed it!
