It's names Bison Hill because of the Bison that live in the neighbouring field. Look out for them on the way up, but not on the way down - keep your eyes on the road, as it can get hairy if you don't quiet read the bend when a car is coming the other way.

Climb up from Dagnall Road to Whipsnade Zoo, take a moment to enjoy the amazing view on your right before finishing by the penguin enclosure. Averaging 9% it has a nasty kick at the start but once you get past that, you can spin it out to the top.

beware you brakes get very hot by the time you get to the bottom.. allow extra braking time when you come to stop at the end.
