I'm heading down to Bristol on the train in the afternoon to spend a few days cycling around Dorset and then ride back home. Plan was to do the TT in the morning first so i hope it isnt cancelled.

Yes, I've checked it out with the help of Google Earth, is this the first time the hill climb comp has been held on this hill ?

And Mr Moss thankyou for your kind comment but I know your just being sarcastic.

So, I'll be along nice and early sunday morning, look forward to seeing everybody.

John this hill climb event (KH10) is an additional TT that was added to the calender. Sun Sept 9th is the club champ hill climb on that dreaded (KH12).

Thanks Neil for the info, so this is nice warm up for the main event next week and a chance to see if John Hitchcock has some serious challengers for the Hill Climb Trophy.

John Alan Nicholls is now timing at the bottom of the hill and John Notter is pushing off. So we are alright for timekeepers.

However it would be nice to see Maggie if she is coming for a ride out
