Hello Dave, its a road bike. I was thinking of cycling from Chesterfield Pilsley around Hardwick Hall and head off towards Creswell. about 30miles but route not fully defined yet. Will use the Teversal trail/ 5pits trail to get back so that will be fairly easy cycling. Can start c 11am. Suggest meeting at small car park on the SE side of the road going into Pilsley from theB6039 at Hardstoft. Ive only got an old map which doesn’t show the trail, but I think the grid ref is 430 6245. I will check tomorrow and post if different.
Its my old stamping ground and nice cycling with some archaeological interest – mesolithic and industrial. Somehow the sky seems bigger around Bolsover, perhaps because there a less hills, but don’t be disappointed it isn’t without ascents.!
