The Beacon Message Board

Great set of photos, Ed, you picked your spot really well, the riders just spring off the background very nicely. Now you've used the 1DX for the hill climb photos I suppose that you don't really have any further need for a camera like the 1DX so instead of giving me back the 30p you owe me I'll jus...

Well done to Paddy and Carl, John may have lost but he's still a Beacon hill climb legend. And great to see quite a few young riders taking part and producing really good times including the Dighton clan, how many are there ?

Well done Carl in winning a very close contest between the first three. So it does look like John Hitchcock has got some serious competition for the hill climb trophy !!!

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.

Indeed a true legend and he came across as remarkably modest man considering the stature of his achievments.

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.

I can help with the pushing off
