Lulz. I didn't dare go back down the same way, I went down the other side where there weren't any horrible hairpins and it isn't quite as steep. Brakes weren't toed in properly and they were making a hellish racket the entire way down. Wish that castle at the top wasn't closed to the public as it'd make a great stopping-point - imagine having some cake and tea up there after the ascent!
