As above guys..
Genuinely lived around here (Penistone) for 3 years and know no one too ride with and no trails/routes.
Only group ride I know of is around Abbeydale Sheffield and it's not exactly local for me.. but since I've finally built a bike I enjoy I'd like too go riding.
So yeah if anyone's up for a ride or even does one usually with a few people or something and wouldn't mind a tag along I'd appreciate the heads up.
Cheers
I live in Silkstone,but I'm old fat and slow,but can show you some local trails if you want.

Buy the vgraphics books. Great easy to follow. Group rides are over rated
Join a club. Rob's ride peak district is mint. Manchester mountain bikers if you drive. Over other side of the hills often
Ingbirchworth. Always up for a ride.
2 new members 🙂
Yeah I drive alot.. Originally from the other side of Manchester so I'm over and through pretty often.. Atleast every few weeks..
Ingbirchworth, wow I didn't think that place was big enough for there too be any bikers! I'll message you jet.
drop me an email - i did a cracking ride about 5 miles from Huddersfield two weeks ago. Can send GPX file
What's a GPX File? 😳 😕
bugger me, we all ought to meet up at back o tesco sometime!

Any info on Rob's ride peak district?
Google finds nothing
Rob Jackson's Facebook link further up
Mashiehood would love that too if poss markhoracekuk at yahoooo com
Thurgoland here. You've never done Cut Gate or Wharncliffe/Greno?! 😯 I've no one local to ride with since they've all gone to the darkside. Will probably be out this weekend assuming I'll have shaken off this d&v thing I have presently.
Denby dale here. Go out often but rarely plan anything as I'm busy with work/gym/wife/kids.
Best tip is to use strava to find routes. I've set off from Penistone a few times - go down the TPT for a bit and into Greno Woods and Wharncliffe. You can't go wrong once there.
Let me have your email and I'll let you know next time I head out if you like.
Try West Yorkshire Rough Riders - website and facebook of same name.
Regular rides in your area - at least 2 different regular routes (one which takes in Wharncliffe & another, Silkstone, from Oxspring, which is just down the road from Penistown. 🙂
Also, why not ask in you local bike shop - Lex's, assuming he's still going ?
Rob where are you riding this weekend?
Lex's has bit the dust. A decent ish loop is silkstone - travellers inn (via bridleway) - ox spring via old wagon way - transpennine - thurlstone (over ford) - Roy's moor via bridleway - Ingbirchworth - scout dyke - gunthwaite - Cawthorne - silkstone.
Mosf of that can be linked offroad. It's not that techy but its nice riding.
GPX files sent to those who requested. The ride is a corker with barely any road - its a tough one, 38 miles and 5000 ft of climbing.
Not riding this weekend Hora, work is manic this week
PO, you’re about 20 minutes along a traffic free, level route right into the woods that gave us Steve Peat.
James. Back of tesco is my house ha! Literally.. my back garden runs onto tesco.
Dave drop me a mail and we can try and arrange something?
Lexs went a while ago. So has the guy in scissett and stocksbridge too.
My nearest shops are geared up in wombwell and a guy on the way too huddersfield and neither do rides fromthe shop.
Not tried the on one outlet in Barnsley though..
