May 2022. I found the gravel strewn surface of the lane caused problems with traction/grip on the steep gradient. (That's with road tyres at 100psi). The steepest part is just before the zigzag near the top. Once stopped it's difficult to restart due to the gradient and lane being so narrow and covered in grit. Kudos to anyone getting up in a single effort!

You need big everything to get up this... big tyres, big ring on the back and most importantly... a big heart, big lungs and big thighs! 😀
