Winding Woodland Climb in Shropshire Hills

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Shaded climb through the woods with a good surface. It's tough going, but at least you've (usually) got the road to yourself.

Asterton Bank Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Popular Shropshire Hills climb. Tough gradients and an old surface (still paved, but a bit uneven) but the views are worth the effort. Careful of the descents as with all downhills in the region.

The Burway Climb, Shropshire Hills

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Stop and let your brakes cool on the decent - too much speed could spell your doom. There isn't a lot of room for a bike and a car at speed. Just saying...
