PEAK ITT
Self-Supported Mountain Bike Time-Trial Route
ABOUT
The Peak 200 is a self-supported mountain bike time-trail route traversing 225km of the Peak District National Park. The route traditionally starts in Edale, and is ridden in an Anticlockwise direction for the outer loop and clockwise for the inner. The route offers approximately 5,000m of ascent. Unlike most ITT routes this one can be started at any point, so long as the entire route is ridden.
There is no entry fee, no support, and no prizes. It is a self-timed Individual Time Trial (ITT) that can be ridden at any time. All that is provided is the inspiration, the gpx file and a list of completion dates and times.
