Ebike mtb ride Peaks 26th June

Post by Couchy »

Last one was a success so organising another, prob 20 miles and 3000ft of climbing. Despite being on ebikes it isn’t an easy loop but it is a lot of fun. It does need a little competence on the bike too 👍

If you've seen Armageddon and they're on the astroid, it's a bit like that.

It’s a trail ride, start and finish at same spot and a cafe stop. This one will be based around calver, longshawe etc. It’ll sort of be planned.

Here’s a taste the gap jump was scary



Some rocks
