Hagg Farm Descent

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Hagg farm descent is a short, fast, naturally bermed, rocky blast. Watch out for a couple of gates and be prepared for a pinch flat if not tubeless. Great fun 😁

Woodland Singletrack Trail, Peak District National Park

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Beautiful woodland single track trail. It's a climb into the woods and then flattens out through the trees before another climb up and out.

Fast Descent Bridleway, Peak District National Park

Highlight • Trail

Super fun and fast descent, equally as good (not as fast) to climb. Mega views, nice wide bridleway.

Jaggers Clough Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

One of the most memorable sections of trail anywhere in the Peak, Jaggers Clough is a stony banked chute down which you can ride full throttle, splash through the stream …

Fast when dry singletrack through the woods with glimpses of the reservoir on your right hand-side that opens up into a loose rocky descent, great fun! Good confidence on the bike required because it can get quite techy in places.

August 10, 2022,Ladybower Reservoir Guided Ride with Josh

Another day. Another guided ride. This time I was taking Josh on some of the trails around Ladybower. Some tech, some fast’n’flowy, and as with most places in the Peaks, we did as much climbing as descending.
Gorgeous day. So unbelievably hot. Not a cloud in the sky.
