    Just moved to penistone. If anyone is up for a ride or a beer give me a shout. It all feels a bit alien at the moment having moved over from wales!

    I always read it as if it’s hyphenated between the s and t. I assume that’s wrong though?

    kind of just down the road in hillsborough, so if you need showing round for rides with slightly porky middle aged slow men give me a shout, theres a few we do over that neck of the woods as well as wharncliffe and greno almost on your doorstep. equally if you’re a good welsh boy and need other brethren to watch the upcoming rugby with theres a few of us who get together bpugh73 at aol.com

    oh, and penistown always feels a bit alien, its own own unique special micro-culture

    Get yourself along to the Huntsman in Thurlstone, there’s always someone in there who rides or runs. I used to live in Millhouse but moved to Spain a year ago. I used to organise rides with Andy who was the landlord up until about a month ago. There’s a regular called Scott who is a keen rider and also came to Penistone from Wales although he’s from Glasgow. Good pint there as well. Tell them Duncan sent you!

    As someone who grew up the next town over
    Rather than penis it’s pronounced pen-is-tonne

    Lots of good riding nearby, langsett/cutgate and the Holme valley isn’t too far, (along the transpennine trail to dunford bridge) then you’ve got plenty of off-road action above hade edge, cartworth moor, Holme etc

    Was going to say the Huntsman as a great pub. Only been once when visiting a mate in Stocksbridge. We ended up walking there, so beer was very welcome. Cant wait to go back and see what the new landlady is like. Andy was a character.

    Andy has retired and passed the tenancy on to Sam (fem) who used to do the Sunday lunches there. We were back briefly in Sept and things seem to be running as usual. Everyone there is very welcoming and a high proportion are into outdoorsy stuff. It must be getting close to Belgian Blue season which is a Bradfield beer, not what you were assuming.

    My ex-missus is from PenisTown (that’s where I tied to take her anyway). Lots to go at. Wharncliffe / Grenoside woods is only 15 mins drive away.

    Belgian blue just came out this week I think for Christmas.

    Transpennine over dunford bridge direction then over to Langsett and cut gate is a good ride.

    Lots of MTB and road biking too – do you ride both or just MTB?
