Having recently bought a new bike for commuting/leisure, I thought I would tackle the Wrekin. I used to cycle up there all the time in my youth which would include cycling to and from it aswell.
Today I thought I'd see how unfit I am so put the bike in the back of the Patrol and headed off. Going up the Wrekin nearly killed me off. 27 minutes to the top I think I walked most of the way but coming back down took all of 5 minutes lol. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/07/dypypu7e.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/07/e4adugep.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/07/yme2a9ej.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/07/aqe7eze8.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/07/duqyqe7y.jpg

I didn't dare touch my brakes much on the way down for fear of loosing control on the gravel.

I am already feeling it after today's antics. I really need to build up my fitness as I'm no where as fit as I used to be :(
