Current talk on the forum of riding in London made me think of the steepest climbs in the capital.
I'm aware of some long drags up to the likes of Highgate, Hampstead, Crystal Palace, and Sydenham.
But I was thinking more of the central area.
I recall Hay Hill leading down to Berkeley Square being fairly sharp, albeit only about 50m long.
Aren't there another couple of short, sharpish climbs off Lower Thames Street?
There may be others leading up from The Embankment to the various bridges.
Plenty of people on here ride in London for more miles in a week than I will ever do, so I'm sure there will be steeper and longer climbs.
Over to you.
