Leon - The Peak District Cyclist

Peak District cyclist on YouTube
youtube.com/@ljbrookes-pdc?si=vNR5jWk4pBJy_pQX


I Ride for enjoyment & fitness, as well as my sense of adventure. Most recent bike is a Specialized Turbo Vado SL 4.0 (mainly used in wet weather) i also ride on a Ribble Endurance SL e, which is an carbon fibre framed e road bike, that certainly helps take the sting out of the steep Peak District hills. Always happy to give advice & am always happy for anybody to join me out on a ride & I'm always up for a coffee shop break.
December 2025 I bought myself a new Scott Addict RC eride 20, which I will be doing some big Peak District rides in 2026 on.

Fine start into the day. Is there a tunnel free for bikes under the runway of the airport?
