Welcome to our website, we are a local group of the Rough-Stuff Fellowship which enjoys off-road leisure cycling in the Peak District and South Pennines  areas of Northern England. We also enjoy going on tours, long weekends away in other parts of the UK, meeting up with other local groups of the Rough-Stuff Fellowship for youth hostel & camping weekends and also going to national club events like the Autumn Meet and the Easter Meet.

 

The Rough-Stuff Fellowship is off-road cycle touring club, founded in 1955 with the aim of banding together those cyclists who traverse rougher and quieter routes as part of their pastime, to add to their enjoyment and appreciation of the countryside. You can find more information about the national club in on the Diary of Rough-Stuff Fellowship local group events website or on the Rough-Stuff Fellowship website.
