    Cycling

    Tarmac to the bottom of the climb, then cobbles, then increasingly loose stones & gravel for the steepest section up to the mini 'col' on Cown Edge. It's rideable on a gravel bike with good technique and line choice. Monks to Cown Edge is easier to ascend than descend on 37mm gravel tyres. The onwards descent down to Gun Road is all easy-going gravel, past the superbly named Robin Hoods Picking Rods.
