Surely the 10 miles of 3% steady descending the other way makes you feel superhuman-quick though? :)
I had a hill (not a 'real' hill) that some days I would fly up, but other days it would just destroy me. And crawling up it tired on the way home just made the next morning harder.
I found it interesting just how changeable the hill could be (well, my climbing could be). A direct indicator of when I was knackered deep inside, even though I felt fine.
