Recently I have taken to picking out some routes with some elevation to further improve fitness and hopefully kick start some more weight loss. Being in Hull, there isn't an ample supply, but here is what I have been trying:
During weekdays I am trying to do 1 of the above, with maybe a smaller climb too, and on the weekends I am trying to take a route that takes in 2 or 3.
Spout Hill is the only one I have yet to do in one go, I am still not fit enough
Also does anybody know of any other good climbs, be it short steep ones, or even longer drags around here? I can ride up to 70 miles, not sure if that opens any more northern climbs up as all those above are around the Humber, but obviously don't want climbs towards the end!
- Trundlegate
- Brantingham Dale
- Elloughton Dale
- Spout Hill
- Various shorter "climbs" around the Swanland area, such as Woodgates Lane and Kidd Lane
