Fubar, my avatar is indeed Falkland Hill from the Leslie side. I now live in Kirkcaldy but was brought up in Leslie and remember cycling over the hill to my Gran and Grandad's in Falkland and back to Leslie without thinking about or having to really exert myself. When I tried it going up from the Leslie side earlier this year after 25 years of not really cycling it damn near killed me. I've managed up a few times since but want to get able to get up Falkland without nearly collapsing.
