As my name may suggest hills are not on the top of my Christmas card list however I have learnt that living where I do I have little choice but to ride up them if I want to go anywhere interesting so........
What do you do if you have a fear? Confront it head on, well that was the idea that came to me in a mad moment of insanity. The plot was now hatched and it was for me the hill hater to climb the longest continuous gradient in England!

So, yes I did it and to be honest it wasn't that bad, I just picked a low gear and took my time. I will be asking the mods to change my name soon if this carries on!
