In my present state of unfitness I avoid any climbs unless absolutely necessary!
By the way... according to the OS maps, you can add 1000' to your climb - it comes out at 5483' !

Hardcore indeed Ratfink
Dom, sorry I had you on a harder than the promised easy ride AGAIN! You must hate my guts by now!
The lemon drizzle cake has had its revenge, as too much scoffing of it had me sick last night LOL
Now, my hardcore activity of today was my first ever crit... vets and women only, so the pace wasn't mudering, like it is with the kids I normally have to race with... So managed a meagre 4th from 2nd position, as I cannot sprint, so dropped a couple of places in the bunch sprint :S

My 1st 2 road races have been cancelled thanks to the anti cycling lobby out near Treales who have swung it with the local plod by calling upong the road traffic act relating to cycling on a public highway of having a racing circuit of >=10 miles and the Elswick circuit is 7.7. Wonking bistards.
