|
|
After two days beer swilling on a stag weekend, do not try and race up Winnat's Pass.
It is not big or clever and you too will look like the dead riding.
It is not a recommended hangover cure. ![Wink](images/smiles/icon_wink.gif) |

It's taken me 4 years and 9 months to come to terms with the fact that you put an apostrophe in 'Winnats', but I'm now finally able to move past that and simply say that I agree with you. _________________ If another cyclist nods/waves/says hello, ignore them: to give any form of acknowledgement is a sign of weakness. |

It isn't the Pass of Winnat or Winnats so, I believe no apostrophe is needed.
The descriptive name Winnats is derived from "Wind Gates" from the way wind often gusts down there - normally down, not up in my experience! |
