Best weather of September for a ride. Barely any wind compared to the stormy gusts over last few days.

I wanted to do a 50-60km ride which included Mow Cop. Decided I would be most successful if I put Mow Cop in as soon as possible, so headed straight there via Twemlow and Swettenham, swinging through Congleton before hitting the bottom of the climb.
I forgot how tough it is! :/ Made it to the top without stopping but there are some really nasty kick ups followed by lovely flatter sections. 25km at the top. Stopped to take in the view. Then headed back a long winded way with lumpy roads and generally going with random signposts.
Eventually made it back to Lower Withington and continued home by normal route.

Absolutely shattered!!
