Skedaddle mountain bike guides gather from around the world in Castleton Derbyshire!
It’s that special time of the year when all the Skedaddle guides from hotter climes come to together in the cold english snow to partake in a weekend of cycling , drinking and of course discussing how we can make this year’s Skedaddle holidays even better!

Mechanical Guru Dave from TSW Cycles explained the finer points of how they keep our Giant XTC hire fleet running smoothly, along with plenty of helpful hints related to taking bikes apart.

Saturday’s bike ride and snowball fight!



Thankfully the log fires and real ales in the local pub “The Castle”, soon Calmed everyone down



A great weekend was had by all , thanks to everyone who came! Same time next year?

Was planning to after some great snow at the end of December, but apart from some great sledging we managed to get in, the snow melted too quickly. So I wouldn’t grumble about the weather guys! […]
