An NCN Audax

Description

117km cycling event starting from Bolsover. Controls at Pleasley Pit Country Park, Blidworth, Rother Valley Country Park and Bolsover., plus 4 information controls.

New for 2022, a largely off-road Audax using National Cycle Network routes 6 and 67 and linking roads / trails to create a 117km route around parts of north Derbyshire, north Nottinghamshire and South Yorkshire.

The route includes Pleasley Pit Country Park (café control), Newstead Abbey, Sherwood Forest, Clumber Park, the Chesterfield Canal, Rother Valley Country Park (café control) and the Trans Pennine Trail southern link. Surface quality is generally okay, but varies, so the ride is best suited to mountain bikes, cyclo cross / gravel bikes or rough stuff touring bikes.
