Hi, does anyone know how much climbing in feet or metres is actually involved in the red route - I am trying to gauge my fitness (or lack of it) against longer days in the saddle and was curious if anyone has actually measured this.
cheers
With a couple of small detours onto some extra bits, about 2,700 feet over the whole route

BinB - I take it you did Zoom or bust (+about 200ft climbing) and back up to do berm baby berm and the blue return from Buzzards next (+about 300ft climbing). Maybe a bit more playing about too.
So I'd say that the full red is more like 2000ft (600m) climbing
550m IIRC. Easy to do more by doing a couple of circuits back up to the Freeride Park or by doing Berm Baby Burn (which is brilliant) and climbing back up to do Pennels Vennel.
thats ideal that for the info folks, cheers
