• Should be enough unladen on a light roadie

    I rode through it laden with a GI of 29 last year in the winter, that was just about perfect for the 33% section.

    Yeah I saw your pictures, that's the inspiration for the trip actually, looks beautiful. Cheers for the advice, but I suspect you may be a stronger rider than me though! And my bike is not exactly light, and neither am I, although I'll be trying to keep the load down to a minimum. I am considering just keeping my current gearing, which works fine for 95% of my riding, and walking up Hardknott if necessary. Could be a long walk though!
