Does full body cover mean I have to carry a hat or will the hood on my jacket suffice.......... ;)

Tearing down Arant Haw is one of the joys of this race, a classic fast Howgill descent - nice gradient, kind ground, early in the race.....tailor made for leathering it down and having some proper fun. Yeah you're right, it means perhaps tiring later on but i always think it's worth it because it's just such a lovely run off. Tearing down the flank of AH at the end on that fast path towards Winder is also marvellous, one of the quickest and most joyful descents I know.Quote:
