Training for the Trossachs Ton (http://magnatom.blogspot.com/2009/04/100-mile-madness.html), I thought I'd better get some training in. Here I am moaning about how hard the climb is up the Crow Road. I had the added bonus of a strong headwind! Uuuugh!!

Notice the close passing car for that extra bit of spice!

  • Nice going mate. Nice to get away from the traffic now and then eh? if thats possible? Too many cars these days :(I like your vids btw.

  • Aye, I really am enjoying my weekend cycling. The Campsies have become my playground! :-)

  • Less than a week to go now - and I'll be joining you in the pain too.

  • Yes I'm looking forward to it. Managed an outing at the weekend taking in both Tak Ma Doon and Crow road. I'm beginning to not hate the hills!

    Look out for me wearing a white CycleChat jersey (assuming I'm not covering it with a rain jacket!)

  • did the angle of the camera make the hill look less steep than it actually was?

  • Aye, it's always difficult to show the slope of a hill on camera, up or down. However, the first section of the hill is the steepest, and this part isn't quite as bad, but my legs are still reeling from the first part!

see all

  • they really do need to establish an upper limit on these headwinds

  • great climb this, does the heart and lungs well, when at full fitness i love switching to a harder gear and flying up it like a headcase, it does catch your legs out at times i can still remember the pain of lactic

  • wow, that looks like a really small road for the crow road! looks nothing like it tbh. but GREAT camera considering it was strapped to your helmet., Well done. that looks painful! -x
