Circular route from Greggs at Beighton, to Poolsbrook Park, Creswell Craggs, Turner Woods and back to Greggs via Rother Valley Country Park.
It WILL be a wet & muddy ride.

The weather forecast is grim and full of rain but it doesn't have to Stop us riding. It'll be a WET Ride, even if its stopped raining it WILL still be muddy with lots puddles too. Its only water, and the mud will wash off with a sponge & soap

A steady ride using various trails & tracks including TPT from RVCP to Poolsbrook, then the Greenway to Clowne & Creswell. then a variety of tracks paths n trails including the Chesterfield Canal tow path to get us back to RVCP.

We plan to have coffee at Creswell Craggs visitor centre cafe, and another at Greggs at the end of the ride.

Always wear a helmet and suitable riding gear for the conditions. Carry some water and snack, bring cash & card for the cafe's, and ALWAYS have the means to REPAIR a PUNCTURE if you get a flat ! Your bike should have a bell to warn other trail users of our approach, and when its wet weather Mudguards should be fitted to prevent spraying other riders.

You are very welcome to join us, we HOPE YOU DO, but here’s a few things to consider first - Our routes are designed for pedal power bikes, we don’t consider eBikes and their weight when planning these routes. We will encounter some loose gravel, stones and dirt on the trails and there will be overgrown vegetation too, so you'll need to be able to cope with these things. At various points on our routes we will need to negotiate a swing gate or two, some 'A' Frames and maybe a stile, so you'll need to be able to lift your bike onto its back wheel to manoeuvre it through these obstacles, and maybe even lift it over a stile. It is definitely not a race, but we do usually average around 10mph on these cross country rides so you'll need to be fairly fit. If these things sound fine to you and they don't put you off you are very welcome to join us. We look forward to meeting you
