I grew up in the Peak District and love going back to back to explore the High Peak and White Peak, the areas near Castleton, Hathersage and Peak Forest. On this ride I head up the old, disused Mam Tor road then ride the incredible trails and gravel lanes of the Pennine Bridleway and the Limestone Way before descending Winnat's pass. I think I came up with one of the best routes in the Peak District to add to my collection of favourites.

I have been in a real bad depression recently but finding your videos and your enthusiasm has snapped me out of it, I have a new gravel bike coming next Friday and I cannot wait to get out , thank you!

@JulietElliottsChannel 4 года назад

So sorry to hear you've been feeling down but so glad I've helped entertain you. Enjoy your new bike!

@EternalInfusion 4 года назад

Depressions are healthy , it helps you to fix something you were doing wrong.

@stephena1639 4 года назад

well received new bike, after several attempts got one wheel tubeless and had to get out for a ride in Wentwood Forest Wales, i cannot stop grinning, the first time in ages! things are definitely looking up

Don't forget to bring a solid D-lock with you.

I live in the Dallas TX area and have a good friend, James, who lives in Seaford. Almost every year I head over and James takes me to a different part of England each year for some road riding. About 4 years ago we spent nearly a week in the Peak District (followed by nearly a week in the Yorkshire Moors). This video brings back such good memories and some of it even looks familiar. The Peak District is one of my all time favorites in England, along with Dartmoor National Park! Awesome riding in many parts of England that most tourists don't get to see on a bike! Thanks for your great videos and the sunniest disposition!!

@theresasila3680 4 года назад

Amazing scenery. And as always you make the ride look a lot of fun!

Your enthusiasm is contagious. Loved the video. Every time I get on my bike I'm smiling. People who don't ride don't know what they are missing. The poo and mud on your legs are just gravel beauty treatments.😁 Take care and stay safe,Al

Lived in the peaks for 30 odd years and I’m still finding new bits of off road as well as amazing tarmac just a few Km from my house. I just thank my lucky stars every weekend!

As a kid age 13 (1976) I used to ride with Stretford Wheelers every Sunday . We went to watch Hill Climb champs few times .. I remember on Sunday we rode up Winnats Pass. From then on I respected the skinny climber's in our club ! Only found this channel today and I LOVE it !

Looks like a great ride.... there's so much scope for gravel riding here it's crazy. Going to try that old road soon... not going anywhere near Winnats Pass, that road is crazy!

I've been binge watching episodes of Time Team for the past few weeks and I was stoked when they went for a dig in the drained reservoir near Dartmoor! The landscape and history of Devon is so fascinating ⛰

I've not been to England. But if I ever get there, I'll need you to be my guide. That was awesome!!! I would probably miss dinner as well. It was worth it. Thank you for sharing that.

@mickeythedogdeane 3 года назад

Your video inspired me to get up off my backside and go out for a ride. Just back from a fantastic 50 miler - thank you 😁👍

@justjase1576 2 года назад

This looks awesome! I had planned a road bike ride around Winnats pass in a loop, but now you pointed out that gravel track just to the right of it, I am planning on doing that instead! I've been training so hard on the road I fancied something different. I will check this ride out on your strava profile, thanks!

@erinohagain9841 4 года назад

Watching your videos inspire my partner and I so much. Once Covid has lifted a bit ( we are in California) we want to come ride some gravel in England!!! Thank You for your videos Juliet!!

Watched this about half a dozen times now, I want to give it another thumbs-up! Super area, love the descent of Winnats. Done the broken road a couple of time s in the opposite direction but on MTB's. Great video, might have to watch it again! 👍🙂🚴

@whssy 4 года назад

Poo and the Peak District are inseparable. Good to see my old MTB routes from the early 90s on your video, back when MTBs were less off-road capable than a modern GB. Live in Denmark now and really miss the Peaks.... What a great ride this was - stopped when you felt like it, enjoyed the moment. Zen. How it should be.

@seanscott7120 4 года назад

Epic, no cars, just nature and riding.Looks so fun. Nice.

@chasc2389 4 года назад

Epic and the broken road looked post-apocalyptic ! The skies looked very moody. Glad the rain held off and hope your dinner was still there to enjoy👍🏽

@JulietElliottsChannel 4 года назад

It was!

@colinthompson5881 4 года назад

Love the Peak District and it is a great place for gravel. Nick Craig did a good route from Hayfield in MBR a while back, still on web and well worth it. Cracking vid, and glad it’s not just me tells sheep no need to move and stops for friendly donkeys 😂

@endatheworld 4 года назад

Wow the peak district looks great. So is the pedalEd gear. Super nice 👌

@another3997 3 года назад

Castleton is a great place. The views from the top of Mam Tor are absolutely fantastic. Cycling up Winnats Pass would be my idea of hell... it's bloody steep and goes on forever! I've not cycled round there, but I've done hundreds of walks in the Peak District, including Castleton, and Winnats is awe inspiring to look at, but not to walk up. 😁 Nice video.

@NailyHaley Год назад

I’m glad that you stopped to admire the donkeys, I would have done the same 😄 winnats pass is now on my must go to list

@kimgaugemusic 4 года назад

I'm really enjoying the scenery on this, especially so because I've totally bonked myself out over the last couple of weeks, and can't move a muscle. Edit that: that last bit of road in the mountains was spectacular! You're so lucky to be near scenery like that. Very jealous. Thanks for posting!

@bikepackingadventure7913 4 года назад

What a loverly ride 🙂

@kaatdebusscher4522 4 года назад

Laughed out loud at the "because Strava" comment. It's hilarious cause it's true. Sometimes I decide not to upload my ride to Strava before I leave, because I want to enjoy the scenery. It makes for a whole different experience on the bike..

@BartAnderson_writer 4 года назад

No watches, no cameras... it's a different experience

@ranxxerox6407 3 года назад

I cycled up Winnats Pass on my touring bike with pannier bags (training run for OGGLE), you can always enjoy the views when cycling at a slower pace :-)

@JulietElliottsChannel 3 года назад

Totally true!! I sometimes forget to do this on my road bike as I’m so focused on going fast 🙈

@R0B75 4 года назад

Having recently got gravel bikes my partner and I (we're roadies) are having fun on local routes at the moment, but planning a Peak District gravel ride soon, so I will pinching some of your routes as we're not far away.
