Well I can translate your grunts quite well now so I think I will cope. Oh wait don't I remember something about your mother sending you to elocution lesson before going to Exeter Cathedral School
Ha, Whitchurch Canonicorum! About 5 miles from me.
Oops...
It's arriving when you do, wild guess…
I would be remiss to miss out on the congratulations on your forthcoming move. I assume this is to get the hassle of moving out of the way before the free bus pass era finally hits you.
All Credit
I managed to find some easier routes on the south side of the Exe. I did one that had only about 1,000 m of ascent in around 100 km. The longer rides that I did on the Dartmoor side were 1,500 - 1,750 m of ascent in 100 km but those finished with easy rides back along the Exe Estuary Trail. If I had come back over the hills then the total would have been more like 2,000 - 2,250 m.
You only need the plot/house number!
Thanks, it's going to be a lot of fun!
Ouch!Ha, Whitchurch Canonicorum! About 5 miles from me.
The Bridport CC Tuesday club rides start there at the Five Bells pub. I ride over there every now and again to join them. Riding back is a shocker, the 1.5km climb out of Wooton Fitzpaine has a fair chunk at over 20%. Bastard climb.
I’m halfway between Lyme and Axminster, officially in Uplyme, deep in a valley, with a 80m climb in 1km just to get to the main road.
Where are you moving to?
CC detectives are at large!@Fab Foodie & @Hill Wimp - are you sure the people of Devon are ready for you to arrive?
And nice house by the way. I'm presuming you'll have a certain otter book somewhere on show
I think Devon Hills are overlooked in favour of the Pennines, Lakes, Wales, Yorkshire and Scotland. But there are a lot of gnarly climbs and unrelenting terrain across most of the county. The TOB in Devon last year highlighted some corkers.
Went past there today on a norrible hilly 200. I have to say there's not much to see.
