Hi my name is Jim Thomason, welcome to my site to raise money and awareness for BMC Mend Our Mountains.  As an employee of the Peak District National Park I have been aware of this year’s Mend Our Mountains campaign for some time now.  I  am an avid mountain biker (well I’m more of a Shimano guy really) and enjoy exploring so I also spend a lot of my spare time looking at maps of the National Park and planning routes.  When looking at the map recently I thought how well the north east of the boundary follows roads, bridleways and tracks.  This got me thinking, link this to The Pennine Bridleway and that’s almost half of the boundary covered.

I would like my fund raising to go directly to the Cut Gate fund (Just Giving Page).  As a keen mountain biker I am fully aware of the National importance of this trail.  The increased damage to the landscape is making the use of this route unsustainable and action is required.  It requires funding as airlifting materials in is the only viable option in this remote location, more than the volunteer trail building work that has been used so effectively to repair other bridleways.   The inclusion of Cut Gate will be a diversion where we will ride from Langsett to Howden and back to continue around the boundary.
