It looks like great day with a blue sky & wide view there 8)
Nice to see the area after long time - I was there 2009, but going on the road by car only...some stops and short walks near the road... :lol:
Good informations about the camping, but what about the race ? :o :lol: guess your training will be harder now :lol: :wink: ( joking ) Well done ! :clap:


Ho Petr, if your a tent man, head on up here, it's a huge site and no need to book, and the views to the beach are fantastic. Good price as well :D Time I lost a couple of kg in weight, it's getting harder as you get older :lol:

Excellent Rod. Im laughing at the banter. Photo 3 - Rodmeisters leading :D
Photo 5 - I looked gubbed already trying to keep up with you. But there was only one clear winner in the end. Theres evidence!
Cracking day out, great banter, great hills, excellent weather, smashing location and thanks for the initial drink - you did set the rule :lol:

The whole day was fun and went too fast. The hills are to be enjoyed and we certainly did that, hope there are many more such days this year :D
