Support the application to extend the Monsal Trail
Whilst it might not be the most technically demanding trail you can find in the Peak District, its hard to argue what a great resource the Monsal Trail is for all kinds of cycling. Whats even better is the fact that they are planning to expand the trail and incorporate it in a 60 mile round loop. However this application needs your support…
