Thanks for sharing Katie! That was incredible. Got a really good sense of how steep it was from the c a mera angle. As I've said b4 u r a beast!!
Love your channel! So happy I found it. Your positivity is contagious! New to cycling, as a female rider, it gives me more confidence to get out and ride! Thank you!
Nice one congrats 😀👍👏👏, epic climb, the scenery looks amazing, keep doing what your doing your videos inspire me to keep motivated in terms of my cycling training during lockdown, onwards and upwards Katie, onwards and upwards 😀👍
Love your celebration!
That view is awesome! Something about the valley in the background makes the steepness standout.
I got to find me some hills.
Fantastic, ive been waiting for this, well done kidda 👍😘
Cheers! :)
Great video Kay Kay !!!
I love just being outside ,cycling and running outside during covid has really added a new enjoyment outside .
Great vid Katie, beautiful back drop, gotta do this one some time.
Glad to see you traversing as it’s the best way to lessen a hills gradient. On the 100 Greatest Climbs list and it looks brutal
Fantastic climbing there! Loving your channel BTW - awesome!
Thanks so much!!!
Great climb and how about the Yorkshire scenery ... brilliant!! Thanks for another excellent video. I hope to purchase an Elite Suito smart trainer next month ... perhaps this will help improve my fitness over the winter so I can tackle some hills next year.
Great effort, little squeak when you know you've got over the worst bit. I do love these vids, the views are fantastic, was mountain biking up over the moors few years back. Plus there's Dalby forest for your future mountain biking😁.
Very nice job staying upright. My thigh and calf muscles were twitching while watching you climb.Safe riding.
When I first started riding I would avoid hills since I've been watching your channel I look for them nobody can believe it my family tells me I'm nuts or I'm out of my mind . Thanks once again from the other side of the pond always an awesome video
i do steep short climbs. we have a mountain crazy hard, i have just gone up a little ways.
Well done, done it a few times myself and ride around there regularly. Its a wonderful area for cycling on and off road. There's a brilliant gravel track on the old Rosedale ironstone railway across the moors and you were very near another arguably harder road climb we call The Glaisdale Horror. You should enter the Struggle Moors Sportive next year, its on a par with the Fred Whitton.
Love your climbing vids.I live in Adelaide south Australia,and all i do is climb.Love your videos.💖🙌👏👍
You made that look easy. Well done👍
Well done lass! Littlebeck towards Sleights is another good one up that way
Great seeing it again you did really well in that, the bend got me a car came down so pushed me on the steep side my excuse anyway. Your right it is a lovely view i did it in a lovely hot day in the summer great it was.
Congratulations, Amazing climb 👍👍👍
If you’re ever in the yorkshire moors again, blakey bank from church houses is a tough one, and climbing out of grosmont going south up to the a169 gets above 30% as well. Really enjoyed the video, great effort! 👏👏
great video as ever, keep em coming :)
Brutal effort!👏👏
Rode this segment as a part of Struggle Event in 2019. 52/36 - 11-28 was just brutal. Struggled to stay on the bike.Next time at least I need 34-50. Great effort Katie.
Super ride. Full of admiration for your effort. I had trouble walking up with my dodgy legs and feet so no way to ride it.
Fantastic effort Katie well done , you make it look more possible for others . I would highly recommend for next year if possible to go try out The Cowlyd in wales please that would be fab 🚴🏻♀️👌
Wow, never done Rosedale even though I live about an hour from it. Respect and welldone Katie! would be nice to see heart rate data overlay too!
Poetry in motion, wow what a gal!. That is one cow of a climb Katie, good on yer lass!...xx
You powered up that Chimney Katie cracking effort you definitely deserve a big
👏🏼 👏🏼👏🏼 well done
Cheers James!!
Your welcome Katie , The bigger the Gradient the happier you are Katie I’ve notice 😉, you love giving yourself a challenge, I never get bored of cycling that’s why I love it so much plan a route on Komoot get on your bike and enjoy a different ride every time you can’t beat it 👍🏼
Well done there Katie nicely riden. I've bad memories of being dupt in to that on 42t chainring - 25t cassette in the middle of a 60 miles ride by so called racing friends a number of years ago, but a nice ride.
Buena escalada muchas felicidades por donde vivo también hay montaña y pronto voy a hacer algo como tú
Another great video 👍 Dog House Lane in Todmorden is definitely worth a try - not too far out of Manchester and there's plenty other great climbs to go at in that neck of the woods
Nice video. I really enjoy your hill climb videos
Cheers Mark :)
Super strong effort - all being well I’ll be riding this climb for the first time on the weekend.
Good to have some idea of what it’s going to be like - eek
I love these hill climb videos.
YOU ARE A BEAST! SMASHED IT!
Katie The Bike climbing Queen well done keep up the Good work, I wonder if you have done the Tarka Trail it's not a hill but extremely looong though lol but I hear it does have a few inclines maybe a bit too easy for you that one lol!!
Did a 118k around that area yesterday, was awesome. My mate took me around his neck of the woods and showed me some of the less monstrous climbs but they were still a great challenge. 2100mtrs climbing all in, enjoyed it very much. Did the coast with Sands End, Saltburn, Went down into and back out of Runswick bay, and Whitby. Took the moor road after that, stopped at the cycle hub and then back into Middlesbrough over some of the greatest terrain I have ever ridden on. Chimney bank was mentioned, but we'll do that another day. Now I have the info. to give it a go. Only got 2 thirds up out of Runswick, I was seated. Newbie error. Wheelying and it put me off. I'll get up out of the saddle next time. Really steep stuff is it's own thing. Like you say, you just gotta do it to get it. I'm up for the challenge and I'll get them beat. Oh, and yes, when you have done 17 percent climbs like on this route, a 10 percent seems tame by comparison. A lot of this stuff is in the head.
Katie
Love the ride videos.
Monks Road, going east out of Charlesworth is a good hill to try in the Manchester area
Here we go again Watching a video of you climbing and pulling my hamstrings!
😂😂
Great effort 👍🏻
très bel effort.bravo c'est courageux
What u look amazing climbing Katie oh I miss hills thank u for great vlog skinny k x👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Katie great ride that well done. Will you be doing a vid soon showing how to negotiate coming back down one of these awesome climbs with a few pointers on how and what not to do? Peter
Yeah so a descending video? Have a watch of this one I did... m.th-cam.com/video/FYgXiCzT6WI/w-d-xo.html
Always well worth a watch especially with the power data.....No wonder you use an MTB cassette and a 34t inner ring....
Anyway, what's going on about you doing more mountain biking ???? I'm intrigued.......being an off-roader myself........Hmmm ?
Well done we have friends who live in Rosedale and I know just how steep that is! 👏👏👏
Another great effort. Even in my best (younger) days I would not have been able to make that effort. I'd of been pulled over to the side with your other friend that had to give up!
Nahhh you would have done it! :)
That out of saddle push 👌
I would love to cycle up that hill. Living at the foot of the Sierra Nevada foothills in the Central Valley of California I have many options to climb but few are this steep (33%???). I'm just a retired marathoner who now cycles (and jogs) but as I get older, cycling has become my true passion. Great job Katie (& Richard)!
I know of runners that want to get into cycling. Lower back pain gets them. So bad they stop cycling.
Glad you enjoy being in the saddle!
My suggestion for a climb would be Monks Road, from Charlesworth towards Hayfield, unfortunately I think it's just outside the Greater Manchester boundary so off limits for now.
Another hill I like is Werneth Low near Hyde, from any direction, Joel Lane from Gee Cross side is short but tough.
Best of luck and keep making these great videos.
I second that - from Charlesworth it’s a short grueller.
Super belle performance bravo
there is an equally hard climb Crowcombe in the quantocks I ride a few times a year, just as you get to the top there is a bend and then a cattle grid usually wet with leaves as well, so you have find a bit extra to speed up over it but oddly still enjoy it everytime !
2:24 If a climb is tough, do a steeper one and then the flatter one will seem easy in comparison. That's good advice.
Superb well done just a quick question Katie,do you not use mudguards I’m just debating wether to or not thanks
I was staying in Keldy a few years ago and decided to take a look - and promptly turned back! You need to be super fit with a great set of lungs, have a super light bike and weigh less than a Pot Noodle - I fail on all counts 😂 Well done for doing it - that's hard-core cycling.
Have you cycled up the hill out of settle? Great video 😊 thanks for sharing 😊
I'm sorry, but that's insane. Exceptionally well done to you.
That lovely feeling when the hardest part is over and you know you've beaten it :). I've never done this climb or Hardknott but on paper Hardknott is harder. Similar average gradient and similar maximum gradient but it's a fair bit longer.
I've not had clips very long and the hill I ride up is now covered in acorns and hedge clippings and the rear wheel spun and caused me to stall! I only just got my foot down in time but it was an awful feeling!
Awesome. I did a very short climb at a similar incline and honestly felt like I was going to fall off the back of the bike due to gravity - like riding up a vertical wall. Walked it the rest of the way. SLOWLY 😆 Do you ever have that I’m-gonna-tip-over-backwards feeling when it’s super steep?
I'd like to see you do Norwood edge, think it's in the book.. I've done it a few times as it's near my in-laws house. Lovely area, near otley in Yorkshire
Katie, have you ever done the Robin Hoods Bay climb? from sea level, up through Fylingthorpe and up to Brow Top... Id love to see a video on that climb....
Nahh I don’t think so, sounds bloody epic!!
Great effort Katie well done. Wish I could climb better, I’ll keep trying. Off to do Zwifting
I do a monthly Alpe du Zwift sub hour - great training for hills climbs in the real world. First Tuesday of the month at 7pm GMT! :)
@@KatieKookaburra I know and I will try but not got near the sub hour like you. Yet...
For Greater Manchester climbs, look at Cowlishaw Road, and/or any of the routes to Werneth Low. Cowlishaw Road is in the Climbs of the North West, and featured Stage 8 Tour of Britain 2019.
Have a look at my last few vids... it’s there :)
@@KatieKookaburra I'll admit, I'm a few videos behind 😂
It's a brutal climb! Took me 2 attempts to get it in one!
Re local lockdown climbs.... have you tried The Wizard at Alderley Edge? It's about a mile long, easy to find from the town centre, has featured in the Tour of Britain. Bomb back down it at a million mph once you get to the top!
Swiss Hill is a lovely ride as well (in the dry). Not very long, but 14% and cobbled. I'm told G and Stannard used to train on it pre classics.
Hardknott is much more difficult, when I cycled I trained up there, dropping to Hutton le hole then up to the lion at blakey ridge, Rosedale is only steep after the cattle grid around the two hairpins and a short straight part. If you ever get the chance, it would be great to see you on the bealach na bah, from Loch Kishorn to Applecross, 5 miles long from sea level to over 2000ft, I remember it was a drag but it gets really tough for about the last 2 miles 25% give it a go! 👍
Correction it's in Rosedale. You have to try the Delves longer and harder than Chimney.
Awesome
There used to be a 200k audax in this area.It sent you up Rosedale after 100 miles of riding.Chainrings were 52/42 then and I borrowed a screw on block with a 28 top.It half killed me but I made it.
Almost 400 watts on the steep section is fantastic. You are a true mountain goat! Do you like the descents also. For me, it’s the payoff for the climbing. Cheers!
awesome climb. i don't come here to see you suffer though lol. nice view too. well done
4:12 We love a humble brag 😂 lol jk you go Katie !
it's easy climbing it these days with big climbing gears on modern bikes. Try it on a 42 /21.
Still waiting for you to do Trooper Lane and the Shibden Wall, Katie
Katie you are my hero the toddy for gotcha woman
Awww cheers Timothy!
What cycling computer do you use when just riding to record, not for prepared rides?
🤣Obviously not done a lot of MTB in the Highlands. Bealach na Ba near Applecross is also a good one.
What gears do you use for these tough climbs ( small chainring and big cog on cassette?)
This love for climbs.....- Are we road cyclists masochists? Why are we doing this to us? We tend to tell us and others, that we do this for the amazing view, while we know this is not even half th truth. We know we will suffer tremendously and still do this - and love it- and can't help doing this over and over again. Check out the link between stoicism and road cycling. Very, very revealing. When you google this, you will come accross some answers. Katie the best!
The Rain, The Bike and Other Things
I saw her biking in the rain
Raindrops falling on her
She didn't seem to care
She rode on and smiled at me
Then I knew
She could make me happy
Wind up in her hair
Cycling everywhere
I love the biking girl
Oh, I don't know just why, she simply caught my eye
I love the biking girl
She seemed so sweet and kind, she crept into my mind
To my mind
I knew I had to say hello
She smiled back at me
And then she took her turn (at the front)
And we rode through the park alone
And I knew
She had made me happy
Wind up in her hair
Cycling everywhere
I love the biking girl
Oh, I don't know just why, she simply caught my eye
I love the biking girl
She seemed so sweet and kind, she crept into my mind
To my mind
Suddenly, the sun broke through
I looked back and she was gone
All I had left
Was a memory and now this song
But I knew
She had made me happy
Wind up in her hair
Biking everywhere
I love the biking girl
Was she reality or just a dream to me?
I love the biking girl
Her love showed me the way to find a sunny day
Sunny day
I love the biking girl
Was she reality or just a dream to me?
I love the biking girl
With a little help from the Cowsills The Rain, The Park and Other Things
My biggest fear is the chain snapping and not being able to unclip in time 😂 but I’m nowhere near your level. Well done
Just have to make sure that you keep the chain in good condition and always check wear and tear. My gear cable snapped on the way back from doing this so just one of them things! Happy cycling my friend :)
Did you manage to beat the hour Alpe du Zwift? You've now encouraged me to try.....though I think I need to cut the carbs and lose some of my 260 lbs.
Yeah I lead and pace a monthly ride to go sub-60 mins! First Tues of every month at 7pm GMT! Come next month??
Please do the Cowlyd!!!!!!
Hi looks Awesome do you used a 30t front & 40 rear I’m using a 33 -36. I’d Be ok doing this hill with that ratio
I had 34 front 40 rear
Try it :)
Excellent effort.. May I ask your W/Kg,,, and please spit and snot... What was your average power?
You’re BA, so we’ll done! I’ll put some work in and shoot to achieve something similar here in the states.
Thank you! Well you got plenty of epic climbs for that!!! :)
@@KatieKookaburra East Coast not so many, but I'll search around for the most challenging and have at it!
Hi Katie, I have a Specialized Allez and the small chainring is 34 but I find it impossible to get up the steeper climbs (I ride around Biggin Hill) if I changed it to a 28T or 30T would that make a big difference? Thanks
Either a bigger cassette or smaller chainring will do that! Do either :)
@@KatieKookaburra thanks, is it an easy job?
I just ordered an 11-32 for winnats pass.. Might have to cancel that looking at your power, cadence and gradient if you're on a 40!!!
of course my derailleur stopped going into the 32 on that ride lol. Off to do this one next week .. possibly on my gravel bike with a 34.
If you love climbs do the Fred Whitton. There's nothing like it!
Done it :) Search my channel there is a video
The one in Wales is supposedly the steepest street in the world .. apparently. Great effort 😎💪
When we can venture there again, I will be there! :)
@@KatieKookaburra up the side of Harlech castle 1-3
The worst hill, no matter how steep or so long are the ones that are perfectly straight looking up the entire distance from the bottom can be quite demoralizing.
What are those green things on the side of the road they look like containers are they for salt the country side beautiful p.s. it was funny when you screamed
The Evil Road Pixies, who make pot holes live in them.
The rocks on top, keep them trapped inside.
I’d just be happy of getting up in one go, watts and cadence and all the rest of it mean nothing, just cycle. My mind would be going “I wonder what my cadence is? Am I hitting my peak wattage?” Distractions. Unless you’re a pro just succeeding is enough for us weekend pedal pushers 😎🚵🏻♂️
corr blimey
Hey Katie, what crank length do you run and what height are you? Or more importantly what’s you inseam?
I am 5’ 10” and use 165mm cranks :) not sure of leg inseam ... 33” maybe.... I have a short torso and longer legs so not easy to be fit on W bike haha.
@@KatieKookaburra You’re a tall girl and I’m a short boy (I’m 5’10). I’ve been using 172.5 cranks till now but ordered a new power meter with 165’s to spin more and help with anterior knee pain that I always get around the 100km mark. It will be interesting to see if my climbing improves or not. Love your channel Katie ❤️
How's Dave? _Is he now a resident of that bend where you cruelly left him?_
I'd wear a high vis jacket mate if i was you, green and black attire blend into the background this time of year and with low light, plus there is a lot of nutters on the road these days, be seen be safe.
Ha Ha, check this out on youtube...Kevin gaines Kookaburra laugh.
Sitting or standing whilst climbing ?
Both!
Which power meter are you using ?
Stages left hand crank :) Love it!
Thank you, I bought the same grx version this week. Just rode once but unknowingly I pedalling harder on left leg 😂 Hope that’s just my mindset and it goes away as I ride more
How do you get the overlay on your videos to show your speed and gradient?
Search my channel did a video about it :)
@@KatieKookaburra will do. Cracking effort on the climb👍
