OUR OFF-ROAD RIDE EXPLORING THE HEART OF THE PEAK DISTRICT RETURNS

TWO ROUTE OPTIONS:
LONG 78km/1366m climb (48 miles/4484') with 11 off-road secteurs.
SHORT 51km/990m climb (31.7 miles/3246') with 7 off-road secteurs.

Gravel, mountain and cyclocross bikes all welcome!

The entry fee is £12.00 (+£1 BC fee) - closing at 6pm the day before each ride.

• Kindly supported by our hosts Summat in Bakewell.

THE rolling landscape of the White Peak is criss-crossed by ancient trackways and punctuated by stunning limestone dales. Ride our Peak Rough Stuff Ride and you'll explore the best of it, starting from Summat Cafe & Gym in Bakewell, that will provide a stern challenge but not an ordeal.

This is an unsigned, self-sufficient ride - suitable for gravel, mountain or cyclocross bikes - and will take you over little-known tracks, trails and lanes, away from the weekend crowds. You'll get a GPX file emailed to you a few days before the event (check your spam!).

NB. The routes will not be signposted; you will be following a GPS file or copy the route onto a paper map.

With the kind support of: Summat Sports, Ride.Run, Cyclocrossrider.com, Yomp Bonk Crew & British Cycling. 

Grassroots ride - open to all - you don't have to be a member of British Cycling. 16 and 17 year olds must have a BC Parental Consent Form signed by a parent/guardian and handed in at sign on (download here).

Cycle helmets are compulsory.
