Long climb (for the peaks) if going up but eases after the cattle grid and all the better for appreciating the views over the edge. One of my favourites whether starting or finishing a ride.

First of the year. Felt strong and fast on the flats. Climbed well without going into the ‘red’ too much. Until Winnatts. Right hip decided to cramp up!
All in, some nasty climbs and great descents. Decent route. Perfect weather. 👌🏻
