This one was taken just before I started to climb over Dunkery Beacon from the north side. Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, EVER again. Ever.

I've just consulted my '100 greatest cycling climbs'- Simon Warren (more correctly known as 'My little book of tortures').
The photo looks beautiful, if somewhat intimidating. The text recognises the 17% (shudders at the thought)challenge, adding ' the road winds like a streamer dropped from a tall building...you'll finish consumed by fatigue ... not to mention the thought of the long road home!!
Perhaps I'll drive over with the bike rack and give it a try so that I can replicate your torture ( no way am I cycling 75kms to warm up for this one just so I can tick off another climb from the book). Hats off Alistair! Hills - that's what cycling in the South West is all about!
