Pegasus Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

I created this highlight and called it "Horseshit Bridge" which is the name by which it is generally known. The edit to Pegasus Bridge makes my and @gregster 's comments meaningless

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Word of warning on this one as the bottom of the descent, where the road veers to the right to follow along the A1 is pretty gravelly and dusty, requiring extra attention when cornering

Beech Hill Downhill

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Tempting to sprint down it... The issue is there is a junction at the bottom and the community don't like speeding fast cars so cycling fast may be looked down upon but we do it anyway!
