Burway after the cattle grid when damp and the Port Way grid to Burway junction when windy is type2 at best.
Brown Clee access road / Clee Cycles Brown Clee climb challenge is a good 'un as is Boulden to radio masts to the south of Brown Clee.

...and delivered a long sought after set of 'beater 11's. 2 years, 20 quid a month less on beer...goal achieved. : )
After going through sets of 2's 'n 3's every year, will be interesting to see how the Ti wings fair by comparison.

+1 for Rydons. Mrs Scattamah has the inserts and says they're great. Weight is right for forgetting you have them on. On the downside, they are designed for your face and will not survive in your pocket. I have a set with cracked frame from this. Treat them kindly and you won't be disappointed. Gree...
