In Crossford, you leave the busy through road and once you cross the bridge over the Clyde, the road goes uphill. Then it is 2 kilometres of climbing at percentages that are doable. Nice climb for cycling in the Lanark area.... read more

In Crossford verlaat je de drukke doorgaande weg en zodra je de brug over de Clyde over bent loopt de weg bergop. Vervolgens is het 2 kilometer klimmen aan percentages die goed te doen zijn. Leuke klim om te fietsen in omgeving Lanark.
