Cornish Climbs !!!

Just got back form a trip to Cornwall and thought I should take the bike to try out some hills!!!
We stayed at  Mawnan Smith, just outside Falmouth. There is a lovely costal road from there to Falmouth and around Pendennis Castle. this takes in a couple of lovely beaches Meanporth and Swanpool. There are also two 12% climbs each about 3/4's of a mile long on the way!!! So looping around the castle and back home was a 12 mile ride and meant I had to do the hills twice!!! (it was much worse coming back though)
still I did this twice in the week and did have to get off although I was blowing a bit and my legs were jelly.
So still some work to do before the IOW challenge on the 6th of May....
thanks again to you all for the sponsoring and your support
Nic
