I’m in Littleover drop me an email when you settle in and I can show you a couple of half decent local routes, nothing tech straight from door but there is plenty of variety and choice within a 40min drive
North – peaks an hour away, Chevin and Drum Hill (rideable from door), ambergate, Crich, shining Cliff, Black Rocks (good 30 mile loops possible round there and only 35mins by car away) Wharnecliffe is an hour away etc
South – Cannock, Ticknall (rideable from door) Kedleston-Ashbourne way has some bridleways from your door, Hicks Lodge, Cannock, few places down towards Leicestershire etc, some stuff out Rochester and Alton way is 30 mins drive
Further afield llandegla and delamere is hour half to two hours, Shropshire – Eastridge, Stiperstones, the wrekin etc are about 2hours max
Hell even Gisburn and lee quarry are only 2 hours thanks to Littleover being right next to A38 so direct access to M1 M42 and M6
Littleover village itself is okay, one of the better parts of Derby, two decent enough pubs, a nice Chinese, 2 good Indians supermarket and selection of local shops Schools are good if you need them. all you need really, I very rarely head the other way to the city centre (which is a dump but close and convienient at times) close by is a Frankie and Bennys few more pubs/restaurants and a retail park with the usual shops/supermarkets
