Exmoor and Porlock
I took a ride up the A39 over Porlock Hill, through Lynmouth and onto Woolacombe last weekend with the Great Western Chapter UK HOG.
Porlock is the steepest A road in the UK at 1 in 4 (25%). It's a lot steeper than it looks in the film. It's got a couple of nasty bends with negative camber which are good fun on a Harley.
I mounted a cheap video camera on the bars and took some film. The sound is awful but the road is good.
This is the ride up Porlock:
