This will be an all day ride of 35 miles mainly following really good trails and some minor roads.
We start out from Queens Park and ride to Avenue Works where we make our way to Grassmoor Country Park and onto the 5 Pits Trail. We follow the 5 Pits, a lovely undulating track out to Tibshelf where we join the Silverhill Trail to Teversall. We then cycle on the Teversall Trail towards Pleasley but join the Rowthorne Trail just before we get there. This is a level trail to Glapwell where we descend half a mile on the busy A617 before joining the excellent Stockley Trail towards Bolsover. There are good view of the castle from this trail. Then back via Markham Vale, Poolsbrook, Westwood and Crow Lane to Chesterfield.
This is a day which is 90 per cent off road on good hard packed trails. There are quite a few ups and downs but the trails and tracks are mostly very well surfaced. Suitable for confident cyclists and those able to cycle 35 miles at a steady moderate pace.
Under 16s with an adult please.
Please bring your own food and drink and a small bike repair kit in case of issues. We will stop regularly for refreshment and will do our best to help with any bike issues
