I was out between Midhopestones and High Bradfield.
Great day out, and absolutely incredible cycle back to Sheffield, I've never seen so many people. A great part for me was when the last man came through, he'd had a fall and was 10 mins behind the rest. At this point people had already started heading back and bottle necking, when they made a path for him there must have been tens of thousands just on this tiny section of country lane. Amazing noise for the bloke.
