Klim start met een leuk, haalbaar stuk. De steile zone lijkt langer te duren dan deze is.... nadeel is wel dat door de smalle weg auto's etc. slechts moeilijk voorbij kunnen

Beautiful little lane rising from the pretty village of Abbotsbury with a brutal stretch about two thirds up. If you need to stop you will at least be rewarded with some stunning coastal views. A narrow road but generally quiet. Definitely worth the effort.
