    Chapeau fella. A good few years back, I rode up Kirkstone Pass and down the Struggle. That is one steep and brutal hill. Great video and commentary.

    Thanks for joining the channel, it was a nasty one but I always feel it’s because I can’t get warmed up properly. I did HardKnott pass afterwards and although had other excuses my legs were working properly.
