Joined: 12 May 2011 Posts: 3 Bike: | Hello, Just some advice needed really. Our offices are moving to Winchester and, looking at the map, I had assumed I'd be able to cycle the 1 1/2 miles from the station with ease. BUT having visited it seems to be on a hill. A long, unending hill. Oh dear. The offices are County Council ones at the top of Romsey Road. Just wondered if there were any 'magic' routes that would at least involve a series of steep climbs with levels in between for me to catch my breath. Seeing as I am used to Portsmouth flatness (& my celebrity lookalike would be Mrs Potato Head) am I mad to even consider it? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. (reposted to get in correct forum, apologies for duplication) |

Some routes do include the stretch I need to cover but those people are hardcore and apparently the hill is only a Grade 5 climb. So that's all right then (?) BUt there were at least a couple of routes that looked as though they had level sections for recovery. Will have to test ride it I guess. |
