Assuming you can tear yourself away from the aroma, it&#8217;s time to pick a low gear and get going.  For the first 2\/3 of the ascent, the gradient is up around the 10% mark, but it&#8217;s pretty constant and it slowly levels off after that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you haul yourself up, you can wonder at the logic of building houses up here when there&#8217;s some perfectly good flat ground 100m away.  If nothing else, it&#8217;ll take your mind off the climbing\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s short and sweet, this one: if you&#8217;re looking for somewhere to do 2 minute VO<sub>2<\/sub>Max style efforts then it&#8217;s pretty much perfect!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once at the top, kick back and relax basking in the knowledge that you&#8217;ve done a great job!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If there are any other road climbs you&#8217;d like me to take on, the more ridiculous the better, then please send me a message on my FaceBook page <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/wheelygoodcycling\/\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/wheelygoodcycling\/<\/a> or email me on <a href=\"mailto:wheelygoodmail@gmail.com\">wheelygoodmail@gmail.com<\/a> and let me know\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube\"><div class=\"lyte-wrapper\" title=\"Summerhill\" style=\"width:640px;max-width:100%;margin:5px auto;\"><div class=\"lyMe hidef\" id=\"WYL_S5bC6OS6JE4\" itemprop=\"video\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><div><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/S5bC6OS6JE4\/maxresdefault.jpg\" \/><meta itemprop=\"embedURL\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/S5bC6OS6JE4\" \/><meta itemprop=\"duration\" content=\"PT2M40S\" \/><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2020-02-08T16:17:46.000Z\" \/><\/div><div id=\"lyte_S5bC6OS6JE4\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/S5bC6OS6JE4\/maxresdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\" itemprop=\"name\">Summerhill<\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/S5bC6OS6JE4\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/S5bC6OS6JE4\/0.jpg?resize=640%2C340&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Summerhill\" width=\"640\" height=\"340\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><br \/>Watch this video on YouTube<\/a><\/noscript><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"A flash of countryside surrounded by some busy roads - more information here: https:\/\/wheelygood.info\/?p=163 Strava Segment: https:\/\/www.strava.com\/segments\/1355864 Wheelygood Rating: Easy Length: 0.32 miles Avg. gradient: 6%\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:640px;margin:5px auto;\"><\/div><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure><div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/wheelygood.info\/?p=163\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An eerily quiet oasis of calm in the midst of the Tyne Valley&#8217;s busiest roads.
