1. (NO IDEA HOW TO RATE DIFFICULTY AS EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT, SO MAYBE IGNORE THAT)The section around Bobbington/Enville is mainly flat, but with a few long hills that I found challenging in my current state of fitness. There are also a lot of cross and headwinds. The second section is not too bad either until you get into Romsley and then there's a long steep hill. I've done it in just under 2 hours today, and that was with quite a few stops to check I was going the right way. It was my first try and I think it's a pretty varied route so I might make it my regular. On this website you can check out the gradients if you map it out http://www.bikehike.co.uk/mapview.php |
