Peak District Solo Motorcycle Tour - Part 1 

Iv visited the Peak District drove around there. I stayed in Chesterfield and drove around Matlock, Bakewell, Castleton. Love it beautiful scenery and very pretty and calming. That road trip definitely helped me to reinforce the concept of "Think Bike" when driving especially when overtaking and turning as I saw lots of them around the Derbyshire Dales.

This vid is 10 yrs old. Still reeks with awesomeness!

Yeah, great riding to be had in this country if you have the time to go find it! What with Melton Mowbray and Bakewell it's a pie and pudding heaven too!

Loved this video, I live just near Sheepy Magna and your right the A444 is a fantastic road.

I was just getting into the CHiPs music.Nice video.Nice riding.

Glad I said no more then!! Oops! I'm sure it's a lovely place, just the restaurant I visited was filled with scary people (it was a Harvester so serves me right I guess), and the food was horrible (see previous brackets).....

At 9min58 if you had took the first exit off the island you was only a stone throw from the triumph factory ..

LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT !!! And the bike is nice too. That music took me back a good few years - CHiPS !!! California Highway Patrol for the uninitiated-combatting crime from the seat of a Harley-Davidson ! Larry Wilcox and Erik Estrada come back to us !

Nice roads. Long, long time since I have been up that way, so I shall watch with interest. Plenty of good riding to be had in the peaks and dales. If you like puddings, by the way, it's probably too late to suggest you stop in at Bakewell. ;-)

I'm from London and visited and stayed in Chesterfield for 4 days. I like the A617 from Chesterfield to M1 from Chesterfield to Sheffield.

I am surprised you did not stop for lunch at Super Sausage. Well known biker cafe in the A5. NN12 7WD. Great food, great service.

Nice one Steve !. Just getting back into biking after a 40 year gap, at 58. I have a few now (lets not go there though :-) - procured over the last year. I love watching a normal cruise. I'm overseas most of the time, but my last "Cruise" was on my 1975 - first year - Goldwing from Ross to Newport in August when I was home, and received the bike. I was smiling for the entire trip. Cut me in half, and it will say Honda - not Blackpool. I'm with "OldFartUK" below. I'm a Northerner originally (and always), and followed his route on my Honda CB250N - a lifetime ago. It really is the BEST of areas to explore on a bike - spring, through summer. Subscribed Steve - so get out there and send me some normal rides out to enjoy in Cairo till I retire at the end of the year. Cheers mate

snake pass (Peak District, not far from ladybower ) is the best motorbike road in Derbyshire ..by far ... beautiful roads and scenery

Another Great Video.

A607 to Melton Mowbray from Leicester is a nice road and then go towards Oakham.

When you nodded to the other biker (the first one as you left Nuneaton) you passed MIRA, where my dad worked in the 80's.
