Haha yes, I've had a few people tell me it's far too steep! Main reasons for my choice were logistics (my father lives close by so somewhere to sleep before and after), volume of traffic (it's the quietest road up that ridge that I know of for motor traffic), and descent quality (silky smooth tarmac, well sighted, and wide, so no need to touch the brakes).
Have you everested before, or are you considering one?

Sounds promising.
Blimey looks quite steep at parts. What made you choose it?
