I gave up on the idea of riding round and round and round and round and round and round ............. boring in the extreme.
Popular running loop.
Cycled along the route many times just passing through, but have also run around in the past.
Its over 75 ' / mile climbing with a sting at sheepstor in the region approaching 400 ' / mile so the sting anticlockwise would kill you later on
Even clockwise has 160' / mile at times, tedious blind bends and people in the road with dogs / sproggs , lots of braking so not ideal territory, remember you are now fully certified OAP
Survival would be the main thing.
