On Sunday Marc Peasegood and Rob Parkes rode the “Help for Heroes” sportive which traversed much of the old Barnsley Borough boundary. They both rode the toughest of the three rides covering 120 miles and climbing 12 000 feet in just under 9 hours.
Two groups were out on the Sunday club rides. Alan and Lucy Bullock, Roger Bacon and Phil Adams rode an 80 mile route via Mattersey to the café stop at Drakeholes.
