Well, write it down boy ......
I'd walk it and I'd love to be able to empty my mind so much that I could ride it, but that's never going to happen. It must be like, say, a gymnast where they do a back flip on a 3" wide plank. Being able to blank out everything else is what sets champions apart.

This video came up on my socials a while back, I think it was on YouYube.
I stopped it after a few seconds :laugh:
Neither walking or cycling this, I'm terrified of heights!
I am even scared of riding a steep downhill, had to walk down the Struggle in Ambleside :laugh:

That's a long walk! I think the Tour of Britain went up there one year. Imagine racing up there, eh?

Heights fall into two categories for me: the ones where my safety depends on my strength and/or balance can be a bit of a no no, but anything else is fine.

I was overtaken by walkers cycling up The Struggle.
 
That last bit has almost made me require urgent use of the washing machine.
I can’t imagine they can be clipped into the cable, they’d need to be stopping every few metres to clip out and in again at each tether point. Oh to not have the power of imagination!
