  • I like your confidence but share Colin’s caution. I’ve been putting in a fair bit and Hardknott still worries me if you look back through this thread.

    Whitedown, Barhatch, Crocknorth Rd are good for Surrey.

    Kent, Chalkpit, White Lane, Hogtrough, Brasted and can be done in a row. Toys Hill from the south for something longer with a bit of a kick at the top.

    What I’d say I’ve found useful;
    live segments, also going at them hard riding at my HR limit for a sustained time. Then going back once better and seeing how within myself I can ride the steep ones.

    Do you have a PM?

  • Thanks for the recs - have paid Whitedown, Barhatch and Crocknorth a visit and by the end of them decided that that's about as much hill as I would be willing to climb without undue pain (though the route sure is pretty..), so am currently reconsidering the trip up North until I get better legs!
