I indeed know where you mean
Ah I could of stopped for a cuppa then. Im always heading into the peak district but not to often on the sheffield side. Its a good hike from where I live.
I used to get lifts off some of the transport drivers from work. They would drop me off at various places and I would ride home. It gives you something to aim for.
Probably a bit like you riding home.
I might get one of them to drop me off in London and then ride home. Maybe head up the A5
