Glad you all had a good time! On the question of ascent I did the route 3 times (see how much we love you?) with a Garmin 800. Each time the built-in barometer recorded the ascent in the region of 994 - 1,000 metres which is about 3,300 feet.

I had a great time thank you to all surprised how good my legs feel this morning , Lesson one when your going up ahill you need to get some speed up before to try clip back in lol . As much as I hated Andy during parts of the ride he's nice guy lol . The favourite saying of the day there's only one more hill he should have a nose like Pinocchio .

Great video, Matthew !

I didn't realise, that Rob was actually crazy enough to cycle through the ford :eek:. I'd never have done it, 'cos it's quite deep . . . and it might not have done the bearings any good. I might have a go on a mountain bike, but never on a skinny-tired road bike.

I asked Rob if he had slim on his wheels after and he just said that his shoes were a bit wet now because it was deeper than he thought.
