  • Peak Punisher

    topbar18_resizedMore and more mountain bikers are taking to the road at the moment, either for a change from the current swampy trails or because of inspiration from Brad or even because it just seems less taboo these days to be seen on skinny tyres. So if you fancy taking part in a locally organised event for a local charity then the Peak Punisher looks like a great event. More event from the organisers….. (more…)

  • Blacka Planned Maintainance – Piper House Gate

    The work that is planned for Piper House Gate Bridleway will be starting this Thursday. We have been asked to tell people to stay off it while the work is being done, particularly on a night.
    We have been told that the work being done will be much more sensitive than other council jobs, more akin to the other work that has been done on Blacka. We will also be heading up there to help with a bit of finishing if required. Any feedback after completion is welcome, but just keep off it for now, thanks.

  • Watching The Tour Live in Sheffield

    Whilst some of you might feel that road riding has no place on here, its hard to escape the fact that something pretty exciting is happening in the tour at the moment. As well as for making for some exciting viewing, it also helps raise the profile of cycling, which is a good thing for all.

    If you’re the sociable type who likes to enjoy their sport with others; there are a couple of options for you to enjoy the last couple of stages  

    The Bike Tree will be screening both day on their big screen in the shop and are happy for people to come along and watch there. If you want to bring a drink etc it might be worth checking first; but should be fine as long as you bring them one

    Nonna’s will also be screening the time trial at the very least and are putting on a special offer for all those who want to come along. For a fiver you get a beer and a bowl of pasta to add to your viewing pleasure. there’s even a ride first too. More info here www.lasquadra.co.uk
