Story by Tim Crouch from , United Kingdom, submitted on 8/29/2009

A good climb, but not the ""Ventoux"" of the Cotswolds. That honour goes to Haresfield with its brutal 25% finish.Witcombe kicks up after the flatish section half way and is sustained until the top. If coming from the Gloucester direction try the Portway ( Upton St. Leonards-Cranham) which at 20% is agood warm up.

My personal climb rating: 4 stars
