A very long, steady climb so bring your stamina with you. Traffic is heavy at times as there are a couple of busy junctions to negotiate. The climb begins in Hawkwell, and apart from a very short dip after approximately 500 metres the gradient just keeps going and going. Kudos to all those who conquer this climb!... read more
