Dark peak Mountain biking
Superb! This great little book is full colour throughout with lots of gorgeous photos and thoughtful, classy design. 26 routes are featured - all my old favourites and lots of brand new terrain. I'd recommend Dark Peak Mountain Biking to anyone.

True Grit
Dark Peak Mountain Biking is a quality guide to the best that the Dark Peak can offer. It provides clear mapping and directions for 22 circuits, a couple of A to B rides and two links into Sheffield that cover a wide range of terrain and skill levels, from short, fast and fun 'Classics' to long, technical and hard 'Killer Loops'. As a local rider this guide covers many of my favourite trails, such as the Ladybower Classic and Figure of 8, the Kinder Circuit and Blacka Moor but there are still rides I've not done and plenty of opportunity to extend circuits into each other to create quality new ones. The guide is supported by some great photos that really inspire you to get out and, if my copy is anything to go by, it will become a well thumbed guide within any riders library and is a must for those wanting to visit the area, whether your local or live further afield.

Top Guide
I bought this guide the day I moved to Sheffield 3 years ago. After not knowing any of the local routes, it has been like a bible. Now I know them all off by heart. Good useful tips if your traveling to the Peak for the day/week.

Would recommend this and all the V-graphics guides (inc Bouldering guide too). Lakes guide is particulary good - even as i used to be a local it showed me a few things.

Just need to get fit enough this year for the ultimate route in the guide 109km off road - Lord of the Loop. Hopefully doing it in Aug!!
