Had a ride into peak district on saturday , all was great until we reached the top of winnats pass on our way home.
The hope valley , Castleton, Hope ,Hathersage and finally Foxhouse were like one very very big carpark.
Midweek rides from now on I think.

Re: Peak district
I was out green lane riding yesterday. The usually quiet Three Shires Head was very busy with walkers. Honey pots seem to attract. Generally quiet though.
Just along for the ride.

Re: Peak district
I'll be up there today at some time.
I generally stay away from the Dark Peak area and make for the White Peak and Staffordshire Moorlands/Cheshire areas, though they can get snied out a bit too.

Re: Peak district
Yesterday and today, popular tourist areas rammed and lots of organ donors out on bikes. Still keep to the minor roads and lanes and things are fine. I suppose a lot of people are making the most of what they think may be their last few days of furlough. Shame really I have rather enjoyed the empty roads and footpaths of the last few months.
Cheers

Re: Peak district
You might have seen me today. I was coming up the lane from Wetton Mill towards the tunnel.
