Matt Stephens and Phoebe Sneddon's Local Gravel Adventure | Sigma Sports

Exploring the local trails around the Peak District, Matt Stephens joined Phoebe Sneddon for a gravel adventure. The pair tackled a range of terrain, from steep climbs and hike-a-bike sections to technical descents and scenic vistas.

Taking on a 68km route, Matt and Phoebe rode Specialized Diverge Gravel Bikes and used Garmin Edge 840 GPS Cycling Computers to navigate.

Watched the video yesterday. Great stuff. Rode the route today. Bloody brilliant. Loved every second of it. Phoebe’s local knowledge and route planning is fantastic. Thanks.

some of the best cycle roads i have ever ridden go, exactly like here, along the repurposed railway lines. Gentle incline intended for trains and calm cycle lanes. Match made in heaven.

Great route from Phoebe, did it this weekend with a few mates. Not one to be underestimated, plan for a good half day.

Always have valve caps on all my bikes. They also double as valve core removers

[richcrompton]

Another brilliant Sigma video! I need a gravel bike now!

I have just mapped this route out to ride myself when the weather improves a bit

[zihaoye]

Saw Matt at the stone circle, can not wait for the video

Valve caps, always. I have a Schrader adapter on one valve, just in case.

[Ucanbikexc]

Knobbie bits?? Never use them. I used to ride with a Schrader/presta adapter many years ago on the valve stem. However I carry that now on the extra end of the Campy front derailleur which is the same thread. I did cyclo-cross with Barum tires for many years and never had problems. Now I ride a heavy slow fatbike and smell the roses. Have fun, be safe, keep riding.
