I'm doing this - cant beat descending off Holme Moss0

I'll be doing it on my mtb with slicks.0

Fortunately the weather seems to be picking up a bit for this weekend. I was getting a bit worried watching the tour of Britain!0

Found that a tough old ride, legs were hurting a bit at Snake Inn but rallied after a while and finished a bit over 6 hours. Didn't see too many other mtb's - but our extra gears came in handy (for me) on the steeper hills (Strines). Great route and well organised/signed.0
