Please note – change of start time.
Because it is a Saturday, not mid-week, Lin has suggested a 10 am start would be better as the car parking is likely to be full by 11 am. So start of ride time brought forward to 10 am.
After todays fiasco when the front brake hydraulics blew a safety seal, so cutting the ride very short, I will come along.
I’ve just realised the last six miles from the end of the canal to the station is virtually all on major roads, unless you want to swim across the Trent. And the train back to Chesterfield takes around 90 minutes – so not an early finish.
I thought I would drop a couple of pikkies here of the results of one section of the ride – the slimestone way mud got a bit friendly

Since I will not be walking, I have devised a mountain bike route, about 19 miles start and finish from the same spot. If anyone cares to join me….. I have not reccied this so don’t know how difficult it is, but if we are too quick we can return via the Houndkirk road and Lady Canning’s Plantation instead of going up Burbage
Leon told me that Mary would be sorting something out – which means at least three of us intend cycling. I don’t know anything else at this stage
Please would you check the grid reference as it appears to be the middle of the field, nowhere near a hut or track. Thanks
If anyone fancies doing something shorter, then options of about 12 and 18 are also available – all with the same few miles to Beeley Moor to start.
