Spot on. Winter stinks.There are no benefits to winter IMO, I am in the gym till March.
Especially when the farmer slurries the field next to the roadSpot on. Winter stinks.
Lovely bit of road in the Dales - but just click along the road for three or four clicks to see why bombing fast down here might not be a good plan!

Luckily I'm a total wimp going downhill, but even at my speed that was extremely disconcerting and would have def. been a brown knicker job had I been going only a little bit faster!Ho ho ho :-) One of my favourite roads, though the going down it aspect is not the direction in which it's 'fun' (and 'fun' is highly subjective and possibly perverse in this context too). For those who don't know this road and its unwelcome surprise, it's worth also knowing that the section linked above is 20%.
Much as I love descending down actual roads (as opposed to tarmaced tracks like the one linked), that would terrify me even without the nasty surprise at the end. Plus I'd probably hit a sheep!Lovely bit of road in the Dales - but just click along the road for three or four clicks to see why bombing fast down here might not be a good plan!
