In this uplifting episode of the Trans Pennine Trail Podcast, Robert meets cyclists Don Crabtree and Pete Sykes to explore an extraordinary year on the Trail. Don recently completed 10,000 miles in twelve months, much of it on the TPT — a milestone made even more remarkable as cycling became central to his recovery after a stroke.
Through warm conversation and shared stories, Don and Pete reflect on the power of routine, friendship, nature and movement in supporting both physical and mental wellbeing. From daily miles to coffee stops, from e‑bikes to the joy of discovering new greenways, this episode celebrates resilience and the simple pleasure of getting outdoors.
A motivating listen for anyone seeking fresh inspiration to walk, ride or reconnect with the Trail in 2026.
