In short: Very scenic two lap route with killer hill followed by excellent downhill section.
In full: A gentle climb for 2 miles, a killer hill (climbing 150 feet in 0.3 miles - I walked most of it), and a fast and very welcome downhill return including a couple of short climbs. Overall 600 feet of ascent and descent. Not entirely traffic free although the handful of drivers were patient; the lanes are mostly single track, so any following cars could not get past easily. Perhaps thanks to the mild weather, many runners entered on the day and the start was sensibly delayed by a couple of minutes to give latecomers like me a chance to get to the start. A very friendly atmosphere and a great challenge.

In short: Lovely scenic countryside route - tough hill which you need to tackle twice!
