I backed off when the rear slid on some grease.

And it is actually Crickley Hill, Birdlip is very twisty and narrow and you can't go fast on it.

A Westfield is similarly unaffected by gradients. ::) Different matter for 1700kg of metal with 2/3rds of an engine, I suspect. ;)

I think we all mean Crickly

Done Cleeve Hill rather fast as well - faster up than down :-[ :-[.

Birdlip itself is very narrow.
