A hill that appears deceptively harmless on elevation profiles but actually packs a kick. A challenge after a long day riding in the peaks but a manageable ascent before heading back into the flat Nottinghamshire roads.

A great challenge up from Little Eaton with a fast road towards Ilkeston as a reward for all the climbing.
