OK everyone, had a trial run today for this with the Mrs (in the car)Wrynose is a piece of cake, but Hardknott is hellish.

Very, very misty day, the cars just come flying down at you and you have nowhere to hide. From starting to actually finishing "Hardknott and Wrynose it took about 1 1/2hours, this was with a quick stop to take some photos. The ride back into Lancaster is about 2 1/2 hrs + the time to get to Wrynose in the first place from meeting up about 2hrs.

So I would say you are looking at a full day to do these two little hills

Think this maybe one for next year some time and arrange some camping or something..
