Description
North of Sheffield and close to the M1, Wharncliffe Woods is ideally placed for a quick sortie by car for half the country. It has three way-marked routes, the bllack route is the only one we´re interested in though. Ten miles long and taking in some superb downhills it´s well worth doing on the day. But why go to Wharncliffe when the real Peaks rides are only a few miles away? Well, in a word, Technical Singletrack. OK so that´s at least two words, but the Peaks is really a bit short of the kind of way steep, perfect singletrack that makes sense of the whole Freeride thing. Wharncliffe woods has got it in spades. And it´s the spades of the local riders (Including Steve Peat) that built a lot of it.
