When I lived in Sheffield, yes.
Now I live in Berskhire, no.
Its entirely down to the fact the the Peak is made from material called millstone grit. Its a sedimentary rock made up of particles that are incredibly hard, so it breaks down and turns into liquid sandpaper! <span style=”font-size: 0.8rem;”>Chains, brake disks, chainstays, cranks, everything would wear down if it wasn’t protected.</span>
Mileage plays a part too but you still need miles + the right (or wrong) sort of conditions. Steel has a Mohs hardness of about 6-7.5 depending on type, millstone grit is something like 8.5. A material has to be harder than another to wear it away (so diamond is 10 on that scale). Riding somewhere with chalk you wouldn’t have the same problem as its hardness is 1!
