Hello

Have a go at this.

Not a single climb but three linked. Makes Mow Cop look a bit girly.

Erm I had a go at this yesterday. I took a wrong turn though somewhere after blaze hill and found another hill by Lamaload reservoir that I couldn't get up.
Blaze hill is great, Is Pyms Chair steeper?

Pyms Chair is steeper than Blaze. Pyms gets very steep just before the end at least 1:4. It is one of those hills where you have to keep your "inner chimp" under control.
If you ended up going up the Lamaload climb you didn't turn left at Jenkins Chapel to go up to Pyms Chair. The Lamaload climb is a lung buster but not too long and is particulalry dangerous going down the other way off the Cat and Fiddle road because of the turns combined with the amount of grit washed onto it. I have chewed my bars going up Lamaload although I haven't ridden up it for a few years.
