A big tough Peak District road ride, with hills of course. Peak District by MuddyGoose - March 22, 20160 It started with a Facebook message. So many rides do these days. This one started "Going to the peaks on Saturday the 19th March...." and concluded with "...thinking 80/100 miles with lots of hills". How could I resist, I had already planned a suitable route ages ago, I just needed a Saturday to deploy it into! 590
The hardest road climb in England? #55 Rosedale Chimney North York Moors by MuddyGoose - September 16, 20154 It's not the longest climb, it's not the climb boasting the greatest elevation gain either and it's also not the climb at the highest altitude but. I'm tempted just to leave it at that; just a lingering 'but'. If Rosedale Chimney isn't the steepest climb in the UK then it's pretty well close to it! 413
First “Cafe Stop” ride of the year. Cambridgeshire Rides East Anglia by MuddyGoose - April 1, 20140 Beautiful sunshine, warm spring Saturday morning and like minded company to ride with; ideal ingredients for a "Cafe Stop" ride. In this case not only my first of the year but also my first, full stop. Being new to the road riding scene stopping off at cafes mid-ride hasn't been in my repertoire until now. 41
