Hi, I was just wandering if there were any experienced fellow roadies who visit these boards who live in the Yorkshire area, England???...

And if so, Do any of you know which are the hardest hills to climb in the County???...

A few of which made my legs curl were Holme Moor, Ilkley Moor, The hill going out from Otley and the one going up towards Leeds & Bradford airport from Pool...

Any others...
