20 years of Monkeyspoon.com
Monkeyspoon started 20 years ago as a website I created to practice my web editing skills during a time before social media and Instagram. It evolved into a platform for sharing our collective passion for mountain biking in the Peak District, as well as participating in races in nearby areas and beyond.
Over the years, Jeff and I, along with many others, have contributed content to the site. Although we don’t post new material frequently anymore, we decided to refresh the website because much of the trail and route information remains relevant.
We both still live locally and continue to ride, being founding members of Peak District MTB, which acts as a voice for mountain bikers in the region and helps with trail maintenance.
I, James, went on to start a local bike shop called Bike Garage, using my local knowledge to offer mountain bike rentals.
Many thanks to everyone who has contributed to the site’s content over the years, and to our visitors new and old.
James and Jeff – ‘The Web Team’
