So basically I've completed a V Everesting during lockdown but also wanted to complete a real everesting.
I want to do it in the shortest time possible, hopefully sub 12, maybe less, so I'm in search of the perfect climb for the ride.
The requirements for a perfect segment are:
- Steep, ideally an average of 10% or more
- The longer the better
- Within driving distance of home so it can be done in a day with no overnight stays. I live in Coventry.
- Fast descent, a descent that is as quick as possible with few turns as possible.
I was thinking of doing it up Edge Hill https://www.strava.com/segments/781198 but it's not very long and a steeper one would be more ideal.
So would be grateful of anyones suggestions of good hills to Everest within reasonable distance of coventry.
Thanks
