Stats 75.63m, odo 535, max 35.5, av 8.2. Time 9:07, total time 12 hours.
Early start. The B-road to Ashbourne was very busy with Alton Towers traffic, but nice and quiet after the turnoff. Picked up the Tissington Trail and had 17 miles of off road flat cycling and time for early lunch at the Estate tea room. Got the High Peak trail after that, some of which is * not* fit to cycle on. It was in a poor state even for a footpath and I wasn't wearing walking boots. It was so rutted and potholed it was hard going even to push the bike up the track. Great to be in Derbyshire again though. Made very good time and pushed on to Crowden Reservoir. Very windy night - and worried about falling branches all night.
Picture of the reservoir this morning.
