That was part of the old J24 , a 25 mile time trial course. It had a hill just past Jodrell Bank (on the way out): it went sleeply down then steep up. Lots of riders including myself swore "Fixed was Faster", so one minute you were doing 180 rpm; the next you were grinding out too high a gear. Luckily it is a short hill. Memories of that bit of bitumen I used to ride on 45 years ago!
