Streatley Hill from Streatley is a short but savage climb, averaging 12% with ramps hitting 18%. The narrow residential road quickly heads up through trees, with smooth tarmac but little room to weave or recover. Hit it in your easiest gear from the start and stay seated to maintain traction on the steepest pitches. It’s over in less than half a kilometre, but every metre hurts. Nail this one, and you’ve ticked off one of Berkshire’s steepest ascents.
