take it really steady for the first two thirds and conserve all your power for the last 30 metres.

Just got back home and having a well earned beer! Good to meet 'G' and Will for the first time and catch up with Gaz,Ian and Dave. Bit of a damp start but if finally dried up and the sun eventually put in an appearance just as we got back to the cars. Knackered!! www.strava.com/activities/533739137

It was a great day...got home, washed the bike and destroyed a joint of lamb...my legs are starting to seize now!? I didn't even notice what time it was when we finished. Riding at the Peaks takes it out of you.
...wish i had taken my mudguard...bad mistake that was!?

It was very very wet and slippery....
I'll let Gaz tell...lol...(and don't lie!?)
Ps- now that I know what you mean by the slabs, I've cleared them before on the HT before...but it was dry as a bone! I doubt anyone could do it today!

I enjoyed Spud Alley a lot more today on the new rig! And I definitely less tired of broken than I was when I did it on the HT...which goes to show how much more comfortable and easier on your body, riding a FS is. I think we got within 10m of the gate today on the slab challenge!? I did NOT enjoyed that last climb...hard work on 32/40...for sure! A 50 sudently sounds a great idea!

To be fair mate I didn't fancy doing it in the wet so gave it a miss was. A great ride but my fitness level has dropped right off .. So need to kick start it again big time didn't have anything in my legs for the last climb but always great fun to be back in the peaks and meeting up with the guys off here again .. Even the grumpy one
