A long climb with a nasty sting in the tail. Get into your climbing gears early and be prepared for hard work. The gentle gradient at the start turns into a much steeper gradient after only 200 metres and this is sustained until the T-junction. Riders can catch their breath here and prepare themselves for the steepest section as you pass the Miller & Carter restaurant at the top. Massive kudos to all those that give this a go!... read more
