Tempted by this - familiar territory from falling leaves and general pootling in yesteryear, gradients seem to range between -11.5% down Sundridge Hill Lane and 9.8% up Bayleys Hill (which I've never been up).
If I ride this, I might use gears, partly to limit the time that other have to spend waiting politely at the top of the hills. Will need to check other commitments.
Yes, I've done the ride of the falling leaves on 42x16 but I was 5kg lighter and much fitter back then.
