Last weekend, LGBTQ+ riders gathered in the Peak District from all over the UK for High Camp III and the inaugural.
Though the inevitable rain came down on Saturday as the riders left camp, spirits remained high and riders made it through lush valleys and gravel climbs, stopping en route at the Rapha H Van for a much needed coffee to warm up and refuel.
After the ride, it was time to change into civvies and head to Hathersage for the evening event. Here, led a panel of leaders from.racing,, and on building communities and creating safe spaces. The evening was tied up with dancing and beers from.
Riders packed up and headed home on Sunday with new friends and new memories.
If you’d like to get yourself a pair of Rapha +.racing Rainbow Socks, you can find them at while stocks last.

Many thanks to.racing and for the support and making this event possible.
This year we’re running alongside - the world’s first LGBTQ+ festival of cycling - which means the Peak District will be alive with the sound of queer cyclists making friends. There’ll be even more ride options to enjoy, and a post-ride gathering in Hathersage, with inspirational speakers and a DJ.
If you prefer a more chilled vibe, High Camp will be your home from home at the festival. Our numbers are capped, to preserve the same relaxed and friendly atmosphere we’ve enjoyed in past years, and we’re looking forward to welcoming many of you back for the second or third time.
We’re also very pleased that will be back to offer mechanical support, will capture our finest moments,.racing will be providing socks, will be sharing their local knowledge, and will be working their usual magic to make it a weekend to remember.
Drop me a line if you have any questions - I am really looking forward to seeing everyone 🥰

Felicity has tried and tested HUNDREDS of recipes for her 'Perfect' column in the Guardian and - for her books - also toured the UK looking for the best breakfast, France seeking unique regional cuisines... and America, tracing the origins of the burger, the hot dog, the fortune cookie and much more! Hugely knowledgeable and well-travelled and very funny with it - spend a couple of delightful hours in Felicity's company, as she compares notes with the also-great Emily Chappell at. Will be illuminating, entertaining and mouth-watering.
Felicity doesn't do too many live shows and it's a great coup for us to get her to Beccles - Limited tickets, book early to avoid disappointment. Tickets via: #HowtoMakethePerfect #Beccles #Adventuretravel #foodanddrink #foodwriting
I’m reluctant to think of this as my origin story, because I didn’t cycle for a decade after that, and would have been surprised if you’d told me this would be my life one day.
But Dad and I have always had such fond memories of that ride through France, and I’m so glad we’ve managed to make time to redo it, while we both still can.
In 1996 we rode steel-framed mountain bikes and stayed in B&Bs. This week we’ll be riding carbon gravel bikes and camping - although we will have the significant advantage of my mother following us in the van.
In 1996 I was in charge of comms (with my pre-GCSE French), and he was in charge of bikes and routing. Today my French is much better, but neither of us have any clue how to fix hydraulic brakes or electronic gears.
We’ve planned the route out on though, following the exact lines Dad drew on the map 30 years ago. It’ll be interesting to see what has changed.

This year, for the first time ever, riders joined the event. Five Brompton G Lines moving from the city into the hills. Canal paths turned into bridleways. Steep climbs gave way to rough ground where riding stopped and the bikes were carried or pushed before being ridden again.
Jackets came on and off as the weather changed as quickly as the terrain.
The ride was full of encounters. Lunch at the famous Gnocchi Gap. A sunshine stop at the ice cream van. Paragliders overhead, trail runners and dog walkers all sharing the same hills in different ways. By the time Sheffield came back into view, it was the end of something small but full. 24 hours that somehow felt much further away.
Emily Chappell rode the route and has written about the full journey on the Brompton blog. Read it via the link in bio.

This summer sees the third edition of HIGH CAMP – our LGBTQ+ bikepacking retreat in the Peak District.
Join Rapha,,.racing, and for a three-day bikepacking retreat for gravel riders and road cyclists. We’ll spend two nights at the beautiful Fieldhead Campsite in the Hope Valley, with a variety of led rides on Saturday and guided rides to and from Sheffield on Friday and Sunday.
This year, HIGH CAMP will be taking place in conjunction with – the first ever international LGBTQ+ cycling festival. With riders from all over the world, and a bigger choice of routes than ever before, there’ll be something to suit every taste.
Through the Bike Out Bursary, FLINTA riders also benefit from subsidised places to HIGH CAMP. Spaces are limited, so book soon to avoid disappointment.

Make sure you’re following our stories over the weekend to see - bike messenger turned ultra-endurance cyclist - take us on a trip through the Peak District to show us that the G Line really does go ”as far as you go.”
Given that I enjoy pottering around old towns just as much as I do going for long rides, it was really ideal to have a bike that I could fold up and bring into shops, cafes and churches with me.
And I know the P-line isn’t SUPPOSED to be a gravel bike, but it did pretty well on the Catalan greenways east of the city - thanks to for planning our route.
I’m only sorry I didn’t get a picture of with hers. But we were far from the only folders in town, and I remembered once again that there’s actually a lot more to Girona than pro cyclists on carbon road bikes. (Though they’re ok too 😘)
Thank you to all my lovely Girona friends for making it such an enjoyable visit. I promise I’ll come back for longer next time.
You can do it in 24 hours from London (Eurostar to Paris, TGV to Barcelona, ferry to Palma), but I spread the journey out over 48 so that I could indulge my habit of having micro-breaks in different cities as I go.
And my new P-line Brompton was the perfect companion for all this. Folded up and hidden in a bag, it was no different from any other piece of luggage - a dream, compared to the bulky bike boxes and reservation dramas I’ve dealt with in the past. And as soon as I stepped off each train, it magically transformed into a bicycle, and whisked me off to explore the city.
It seems everyone is pleased to see you when you show up with a Brompton. I was worried people would make a fuss when I tried to bring it into their shops, cafes and museums, but it was welcomed even in the extremely trad Parisian restaurant where I had lunch - the waiter and proprietor carefully lifted it behind the counter for me, and assured me they would keep it safe while I ate.
And like London, Paris, Barcelona and Palma all now have really good cycling infrastructure, with bike lanes everywhere - particularly welcome for an occasional visitor like me, who isn’t fully au fait with directions, locations and the tendencies of drivers.
I’ll be travelling home via Girona, Vitoria-Gasteiz and Bilbao, and I think they should all be equally good - I’ll keep you posted as I go.
Hello, I’m Emily. I’ve been obsessed with cycling since I got into it in my early twenties (I was never sporty before that, so I still sometimes marvel at my metamorphosis), and my first big adventure was working as a bike messenger in London in the 2000s. This job kept me happy for six years, showed me all the hidden corners and characters of London, and gave me the confidence to tackle everything that came next. I tell the full story in my first book, What Goes Around.
After a few years of couriering I felt the need for a bigger challenge, so I set out to cycle across Asia. This journey took me 18 months, during which time I passed through extremes of climate (the Turkish winter, the Xinjiang summer), slept in all sorts of weird places, and discovered again and again how kind people will be to you when you arrive in their small town on a bike, hungry and tired and in need of company.
On that trip I discovered a fondness for winter cycling, and since then I’ve crossed Iceland on my fatbike, and ridden from Anchorage to Seattle in winter. (It got as cold as -40, and I was possibly the happiest I’ve ever been on a bike trip.)
Ever on the lookout for a bigger challenge than the last one, I got into ultra-distance racing in 2015 (back when it was just the nerds and the weirdos), and in 2016 I was the first woman to finish the Transcontinental Race. I’ve written about this in my award-winning second book, Where There’s A Will.
I still cycle all the time, and am ever on the lookout for new challenges and adventures. In recent years I’ve got into gravel riding, flirted with mountain biking (I even won a 24-hour race once), and cycled across Europe so many times that I can’t count them off-hand. Every summer I lead Le Loop - a charity bike ride where amateur cyclists ride every single stage of the Tour de France route, one week before the pros, and I love the opportunity this gives me to get to know France (and the surrounding countries) in more glorious detail than I would ever have seen it otherwise.
