depends on the hill you're going down and how brave you are..

come to the time trial with me phil. I want to see you do 5 miles in 12 minutes. (In case you haven't noticed, you need to be going at 25 mph.)


That map is rubbish, the centre of Girton village is inside the A14, unless there's more to it than i've seen. But college college definatley is. Try 2 miles tops and you might be close.

Thanks to all who replied, #2 son feels able to brave the distance and has applied to Girton today.

Does anyone know what the arch & anth 'aptitude test' consists of? Failing that, do you know any arch & anth people at Girton who might be able to tell us? I know it has a reading list, but that's it.

Yes - the journey goes from the "centre" of Girton Village, around and down towards the "centre" of Cambridge. Plus it's a car journey. Hence hyperbole.

Just to add did the sat nav as a walking route
