Overall Duration On a long ride, it’s sometimes good to have a little break in the middle, or maybe a catch up at the beginning or end to keep it sociable. This means that the overall ride duration may be longer than the actual cycling time.

Breeze Bike Rides in High Peak

This is a steady ride from the Ashopton viaduct on the A57 out to King's Tree and back. We should get stunning views across Ladybower Reservoir and up to Derwent and Bamford Edge.
The first part of the ride is along a shared cycle/footpath and then  we join the minor road along the side of the reservoir. At this time of evening, the road should be quiet. The first part of the route is flattish, but I'll be honest, the road down to Fairholmes is up and down. We can take it nice and steady and walk if needed!
Once we get to King's Tree, we can have a rest there so remember to bring a drink and snack.
We will then retrace our route back along the road at the side of the reservoir to the viaduct, then back along the cycle path. There is a steady climb back but as said before, we will take it nice and steady and can walk if it gets too much!
It's a lovely time of day to do this ride and enjoy our beautifuul countryside.
Wearing a helmet is advisable; if you don’t have one please do not to worry you can still take part.  If you enjoy the bike ride and would like to come again perhaps you could look to buy one then. 
Bike lights are also advisable, especially if the weather is gloomy.
Please dress appropriately for the weather and you’ll need to bring a drink, snack to keep you going, spare inner tube and puncture repair kit.
If you have any questions for more information on all of our rides please see our Facebook page Breeze network Derbyshire
Look forward to seeing you there!

Meet the Champions

  • Christine Dicken Christine Dicken I've been riding on and off for about 12 years, initially for commuting and now purely for pleasure and exercise. I'm not the fastest or the fittest but I get there in the end and enjoy the journey! My cycling habits have been curtailed over the last few years following the birth of my son but I'm thrilled that he now has developed a love of cycling and I hope to help other women to enjoy cycling and encourage their children too.
