But we all come back for it
Craigowl hill - roughly 200metres climbing in roughly a mile.
sounds not that bad till you realise most of the climbing is done in the first half mile as it goes near vertical - you realise 39-25 isnt quite enough just as you reach the cattle grid at the bottom and it looms over you like a wall!
note the road going up vertically in the distance beyond the cows. It then turns sharp right , goes over another cattle grid and round the side of the hill all the way to the mast on the top. By the top of that vertical bit your legs are in a world of hurt , you wanna spew but you can still see the boy infront.
If you dont colapse over the line then you didnt try hard enough.
I colapsed alright took me ages to get my breath back !
