It's supposed to be ok, and I'm hearing mixed reviews about the final climb. Some people saying it's a nightmare, some saying it's not as bad as one might expect.

dd - just be in a low gear as you approach the left turn at Hillside (?) cemetry (near the end), it's short but sharp and, acording to Druidh, there will be carnage as everyone comes around the bend in too high a gear - I'm sure he'll be along shortly with more accurate advice!

Etape route is fine, but mustards advice about gearing is spot on for that corner.

DD, there's a secret (ish) plan being put together for June if you fancy it. Details will be available once i've sorted out the last few bits and bobs. It will [s]hurt[/s]rule. 8)
