Technical and satisfying descent. Dropping off the summit there is an immediate steep left/right/left. Visibility is good as soon as you see it, so you can pick a wide line if necessary. A couple of lefts leads to a deceptive left/right. You expect the road to straighten, but it keeps going left! Easy to get it wrong here.

After the cattle grid there are no more nasty corners. Brakes are optional. Speed down into Oughtershaw with a smile. As you enter the hamlet, the road narrows and visibility is not so great, so exercise a little caution.
