Palerider and I are planning a weekend trip on the bikes, camping overnight on Friday/Saturday, towards the end of October.
We had a good weekend in Wales at the begining of the year, but having been there a few times now, were looking for somewhere else.
I used to climb in the Peaks and it's not too far for a weekend gaunt.

Can you suggest some good local roads we should be taking in. Are there any fire-road tracks we could add to our itinery? (We're not quite ready for full off road antics just yet).

Many thanks,
Ollie

Hey Gary

A big thank you to you from Ollie and I for seeing us through our first off road experiences in the Peak District. What a stunning place. Stunning views, and excellent instruction!

What a weekend, really helped having Gary take a whole day out of his schedule to show us the ropes, and be patient with us when we were getting it all wrong. A BIG thanks to SkyGod, I owe you a beer and chips on our next visit.

Only injury was to Pale's Zumo

Getting those TKC's as soon as

Your both very welcome lads
It was a good day all round. I`m off out taking a couple of lads round this Saturday but the weather isn`t looking to clever.
Might have to get the DR out.

Catch you next time.
