I cycled the ‘secret sections’ of the Trans Pennine Trail from Chesterfield to Leeds then onto York on the Solar System Way
It was a great trail, with amazing scenery and history! I didn’t even need to camp or pay for accommodation! Bonus!

Yeh right……selective amnesia, " I forgot my mother in law lived there""……???
Great video as usual. I live a mile or two off the TPT and I need to get out and do the whole thing one day. I have family in Sheffield too so I can even plan that into the trip!
Ah, we passed each other on this quick trip of yours. It was on the riverside path just as you were coming up back of Meadowhall entrance to foodhall.
I would have said hello but I was heading home at that point and my tired brain didn't twigg it was you until we'd passed each other.
I wondered if you'd come from your folk's house, which is very close to where I was heading back to.
The very wiggly TPT with its various branch lines, in particular around Sheffield really needs some different names to reduce confusion for folk seeing signs to turn off the TPT they are currently on. Branch Line to York, Sheffield, Leeds etc would help.
Not done the branch line up to Leeds yet. Might try that soon to tick it off.
This route reminds me I have a nerdy question about optimum YouTube codecs re a video I did on the TPT, that YT mangles. I'll message you via FB.
i park at riccall and join the solar route to york. nice flat ride. great channel.
I've just purchased the map for this section of tge TPT route. I'm thinking of doing Leeds to Chesterfield
As an ex astronomer, I think the Solar System Way trail is an amazing way to help show how incredibly big our solar system is.
Brilliant video,
