Road cycling

This is a beautiful back lane from Pilsley to Bakewell or vica versa. Both directions have steep sections but it's a great and beautiful way of avoiding the traffic. From the Pilsley direction, the descent in to Bakewell is very steep on a rough road which often has a lot of debris. I definitely would only recommend going from Bakewell to Pilsley in the winter months but on a dry day both directions are great with care on the descents
