Almost as scary as going up.

Edale Road

Highlight • Cycleway

Longstone Edge Climb

Highlight • Viewpoint

Long climb (for the peaks) if going up but eases after the cattle grid and all the better for appreciating the views over the edge. One of my favourites whether starting or finishing a ride.

May 22, 2022,Peak Forest tour

Great day out with the ASR riders. 11 of us today so it made for a great ride. Some hills were tackled and decents as well. Good training.

A peleton of 4 for the day including Zulfi, Imran and Nasir. Mixed conditions with some light 🌧️ at times but warm enough especially on some of the climbs. Altogether a good day out in the Peak.
