Defiantly uphill is best, Woo Hoo 202-154, Devils steps 202-306  Would say these days Woo Hoo is now trickier than the steps but the tricky section is a lot shorter, both great fun though  and far more likely to be dab free up the steps, have funbiggrin When you going? Can I join in?biggrin

Try one by Totnes which starts from a farm going upwards.... A rough very steep climb but smooths out then onto the totnes main road..........cant remember its name but Mike has it. Makes Angel steps look like a driveway biggrin

 I will get the lane number for you Steve as Mike wants to try it up hill as well. We rode down it but climbing it would be a good challenge for you.

 If you're not going that far down, what about 202-085 ridden N to S, a great lane.

I think the lane mike W is talking about is 202 052 at rocombe.  Im not sure that it is massively tough but looked challenging the last time we rode it.It should be most fun east to west uphill from the farm. Google maps make the track look as if it has been smoothed out- hope not , it was the washed out steps that look the challenge- nice n steep!!!!!!!

The track at the somerset forest day had some tough climbs, even on the main loop which were good practice.
