Colour me surprised – I really thought the steep parts of the climb were going to be horrendous on the Meta, but I was wrong. The climb was every bit as good as the Roscoe, and I was forced to stop on the usual two extra steep portions.
After the Fling to Sawmill I readjusted the seat height – this time I got it bang on. It had probably been over a centimetre too low. The subsequent climb to the turbine was amazing, perhaps even easier than on the Trek.
I was going to Ikigai down and Transient back up as well as the turbine climb, but I was a little short of time and the inclination.
