Brilliant video many thanks. At 98kg will give that one a miss lol

Great effort Sean, some time! Thanks for creating the video. Kept me company taking on the virtual ride on zwift, allowing me to see what the real climb looked like. Thanks! 😀🚲

Gotta catch 'em all!

Sean, Im coming over from the States to do the Ride to the Sun (carlisle to Edinburgh) ride. But before hand i want to come up here and ride this also. Looks like you made it up in around half an hour, how cooked were you? did you go down the other side to Applecross then turn and come back? or did you turn from the summit and go back? I am going to be on my own so leaving a car somewhere that i need to return to. Trying to figure out the range. Any thoughts? Is there a place to eat anything in Applecross?

Well done that man 👍🏻👌🏻👍🏻👌🏻👍🏻

Wind sounds horrible!!!

Brilliant video thank you

Awesome.respect.

Fucking maniac. If that was a car driver they would be slagged of for going that fast. And you wonder why nobody has any respect for cyclists.

Nice climb and onlly encouraging me to do Ironman bolton now . Not as steep as the climbs we have in the west country although its a long climb for sure :)

allez allez... great clip at the end after giving it all....pure art

well done mate,what a fit bloke.

Impressive to say the least, I got more out of breath than you driving up there 😂To those who havent been there believe me, the film doesnt do it justice, that is one seriously steep climb. Hat off to you fella.

Nice day for it - car drivers didn't help - and chapeau for the sprint finish

Well done mate. 👍

Incredible. It took me that long to drive up that pass.

Rode this yesterday. Well, I say "rode", I stopped several times to spit up blood and teeth. Took me 26 minutes, which puts me 2,294th in the Strava ranking! I did not walk any sections though, so happy with that. Next time I'll take my MTB, which has lower gears.

Nicely done! I just climbed this for the second time the day after climbing The Long Mountain in Buttington. The Horseshoe seemed quite tame after that.

Any technical tips and tricks ?

I did this yesterday for the first time. Watching this video, I don’t remember most of it. Hard work.

Great climb 🚵🏻‍♂️

Ahgg coble stones lol

That's the most tired I have seen you after a climb lol. Must have been hard!!.

That was terrifying for a beginner like me lol!.

Thanks for the video. It's great to see these famous climbs. Thank you.

At 62 years old and 16 stone I might have to give this one a miss lol. Many thanks for the video.

Either your heart rate monitor or your heart is broken

Wow! I can only just get up that and you made it look easy! chapeau 👏👏👏

I’m seasick from watching that.

Hey Sean, Great video what do you use to to record and get your riding stats up?

This is good to prop in front of the rollers while pedalling my little fixed gear. Gives somehing to aim at.

Brilliant shadows. Gives a great sense of the effort you put in.

Now that is a deserted road - only one car and no other bikes! Did it a couple of times back in the 60s and 70s, as an alternative route to Ingleton. Brutal, cause we have to cross Grindleton or Wad Fell first.

3:29 Chris Boardman had already finished by this point!

Very ambitious - you even did the hundred yards before the 'official' start, just after the junction at the old garage. Gave you a run at it!

Is 34 30 ok for a 4wkg rider for these climbs?

Was that speeded up or is that the lunatic pace you climb at!?! Now looking forward to your vid of Harlech.

I had to have a lie down after WATCHING that! I don't think I'll be doing that climb any time soon!

what gear cassette did you have on this bike?

Walking up hard enough. Wow impressive

You go down that far quicker than I ever have haha

I think this climb was the 1998 Combined Services (Army/Navy/RAF) Hill Climb course. It was hard.

Hi, enjoyed this. A climb I know well and do often, love the way you went straight past the Cat also, exactly what I do. Nice video my friend...

Hello Sean! Is it possible to use some of this video on the Tour of Britain's social media channels, please? Full credit to you will be given. Thanks!

do you eat nuclear fuel lol

you are much faster at riding up than I am lol I used to live 1.5mls from riber hill, once you've ridden it a few times it's not even hard to get up, I used to ride it sat down I never stand up on a bike lol

Genuine risk of loss of control and falling off the edge surely ?

Just done it on exercise bike, was frightened of falling off, very fast.

Well done and stay safe, Kirkstone Pass Inn owner John

One of my favourite routes. Think my best time was just under 7 minutes from the bottom to the cattle grid at the top of the steep bit. 14:59 go straight on and that's a lovely stretch of road too. I do a loop up to Derwentside reservoir and back to Stanhope.
