I love cycling in the Lake District and adore the Fred Whitton Sportive, so this is a video I've always wanted to make, with Lee Baxter, in order to find out for myself what it's like to cycle the wrong way around the UK's most iconic and toughest cycling event. We take on Blea Tarn & Wrynose (both from the tougher direction) as the start with roads narrow and legs fresh, and descend the mighty Hardknott..... But with legs less than fresh we then take on Honister at 140km Kirkstone at 160km - again both from the tougher direction. Of equal importance to me is what does the experience feel like and are the views even more spectacular ? Find out as Lee and I take on the the 184km and 3700m of elevation that is the Fred Whitton in Reverse, at full gas on the climbs with power overlay.
