Ride 03/03/2012 by scotlund@blueyonder.co.uk at Garmin Connect – Details. So I decided to ride the reverse of what I did last week but going a slightly different route over cross country. It turned into a bit of a quagmire and me having to lift my bike over a lot of farmers gates. And all of that before I hit the steep side of Tak-Ma-Doon road. Took me 35 min to ride the 2 miles uphill in first gear, dam hard ride and very windy by the time I got to the top. But the fun stuff was now left, riding 10 miles down hill and reaching speeds of 35 mph
