I reckon there is (roughly scaled off the contours) about 200m ascent per lap. 200 x 8 = 1600m  |

What - Ilkeston to Bilborough? - where are there any hills?
Also, you can ride it. Steve rode the Div's last year as a junior (from memory, it's only 1st year juniors who can't ride it). So let's see you put your money and legs where your mouth is. |

You need to get a few points then, cos I noticed you're still a 4th Cat, and it's an E/1/2/3. |
