I fell off in bizarre circumstances a week ago (other riders were involved) and I was bashed about a bit so just 26 miles today (no calorie intake) but I rode up Black Hill (Arthington to above Bramhope) to restore my manhood. Black Hill passes a quarry and a farm so adhesion can be a problem, along with the 20+% climb - so the climb is invariably nasty, always brutish and certainly never short.![]()
