That's one steep slope for sure, caught me out.....can't really see the gradient from pif's photo, plus there's a load of bee hives at the bottom as well, so be careful if you bin it

Thanks bobeagle hows things going your end bud ? You still taking it easy ? I blinking doubt it !!
Yeah it’s a steep one that, it doesn’t show in the pics, easy to have a off on. I make a right pigs ear of it but get down ok mind you it’s a bit like riding a bucking bronco by the end of it.
Been down it 3 times now and up the once, if I had known about the legendary spam tin I would defo had stopped for a pic
Yeah Phil a couple more days and I’ll have that ulsterman in my ear, he’ll enjoy ribbing me about my tyre selection, satvnav , checking coolant I’ll no doubt get the pool of oil treatment..
My mate and I may be back with exc’s use braganca as a base, won’t be for ages but I’ll let you know if it happens
