Twas a Very Difficult Hill to Climb

Twas a Very Difficult Hill to Climb......when you have no Talent!!.

		A Good Start!!!.. (NOT!) Paul's Bike refuses to start. We briefly consider abandoning Friday's ride in favour of the Pub!. Frowned upon by Cardy...Paul perseveres. Its funny, Paul managed to start his bike by getting off and kicking it over with his left foot!. Something his bike decided was the only way it wanted to be started for the entire weekend!.
		To reach this point (a tenth of the entire route!)took us about 2hours from leaving the Hotel!!. The route marked on the map suggested a morning run, duration: 2hrs ish... My Arse!!!!. Having reached here Paul can be seen enjoying a Cigarette, issuing instructions to me on how to get up the next bit!!!!. The bike furthest up there is Cardies!. Hidden by his handle bar is a plaque!!..
		Here it is.. A tribute to a rider that dies "whilst with Friends!" This explains why I wasn't so keen to return this way. To the left is a 300ft Drop. Aparantly, Paul's friend lost a bike over the edge last year. It took 3 hours to pull it back up!!!.
		Look how high we are!!. Cardy takes a well earned breather. You'll notice that green dot in the middle of the path about 100yds in the background....Well thats where my bike stalled and refused to start for 10 minutes!!.. So thats where it Stayed!. A MOST EXCELLENT ADVENTURE!!...
