    The little town of Harlech, home to the steepest hill in Britain peaking at 40%. It is also home to some very accommodating Chinese takeaways that were more than happy to welcome in some tired and hungry smelly cyclists late on a sunday night.

        Beautiful castle, well worth a visit - there's even the 1:2.5 hill to climb if you fancy a challenge!
