This is a bit niche but anyway. I'm off to Bridlington in East Yorkshire on the beer on Saturday. Being a sad sort of individual - and living in flattest Norfolk - I thought it would also be a good opportunity to get some decent height gain for a change. So i thought I would get there early and do a longish sort of ride. Planned on Ridewith GPS 40 miles with 4000ft: literally impossible where I come from! Having looked at the roads on Google Earth and considered time of year and weather etc, just wondering which bike to take. Roads (very quiet) seem quite likely to be pretty muddy. Biggest hill will be Hanging Grimston. Not exactly Ventoux but relatively steep and long for someone from Norfolk. So should I take Caadx - 46\36 and 28 on rear with Cx tyres, or should I take road bike - 50/34 plus 32 on rear? Speed is not an issue but getting up hills safely is!
