RIDE SUMMARY ##
First ride of the year, heading out Oldham / Saddleworth way.
Some nice punchy climbs in this one, should be very familiar faces to most of our regulars but might be the odd surprise.
As a belated christmas gift I kept it kind at a shade under 40 miles and a tad under 3000ft elevation.
