Do you have info on length, altitude gain, gradient profile, etc.?
Here's Ed Laverack's 2nd place ride, he's in the video at 20:55, looking very strong.HammerTime2 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 01, 2023 12:40 pmDo you have info on length, altitude gain, gradient profile, etc.?

Reading what he says he is absolutely gutted... he will not enjoy seeing jubilant Andrew Feather at the end of my video.
Anyhow, The Struggle is essentially an alternative Kirkstone Pass. Ed's Strava shows it at 4.27km long with 369m of up. This is way longer than a usual UK HC course. It starts very steeply, the middle is rolling, there's a significant downhill (he has a max speed of 51kph in this effort) then it ends with an extended fierce ramp.

Was riding under a bridge and heard something that sounded like a flag flapping in the wind. Looked up and was a bit surprised to see a BASE jumper land about 100 feet from me. First time for everything.
