Clifton CC HILL CLIMB 2016 - Sunday 2nd OCT 11am

Post by ClaireG »

Hello There!
Annual reminder for the Club Hill Climb next Sunday

When: Sunday 2nd October
Start: Bishop Wilton at 11am.
Entry: On the Line as for Club SPOCO Events. £3 Senior; Junior/Concessions £1
(You must be a paid up member of Clifton CC or a CTT-affiliated Club to ride - you may be asked to show proof of this - you can join Clifton CC on the day: £20 Senior; £5 Under 18 / Concessions)

The climb is the minor road which goes up from the village X-roads to join the A166. Finish just prior to the junction.
Max gradient 20%, distance 1.2 Km
(time of ride is somewhere between 5m30s & 11mins)

There are several Club trophies up for grabs, including separate category for riding MTB, but mainly if you feel like having a go, having a blast, then come along....
Whether you are up for Racing or just want to test your fitness out after a Summer of Club rides, you’ll be made very welcome. Race bike, touring bike, MTB, tandem…………come along.
Remember Junior is Under 18yrs and minimum age for CTT-organised events is 12yrs (with signed Parental Consent Forms).

Depart 09-30 from the Square for those riding out together or meet there at Bishop Wilton village cross roads (for safety & visibility, please do not park at the start or on the course - find a verge off the road of the hill climb - Ta)
See you there
Claire & Robert

PS........worth acknowledging the Club Event Entry etiquette:
1. Max number of riders we're allowed for CTT-organised Club Events is 40.
2. Clifton members priority sign on. This priority will last until 10-40am. Can join on the day
3. Any rider who is a member of a CTT Club is welcome to ride and at 10-40am entry opens to all, up to a max of 40 riders. We've never had this issue, so I don't forsee any contention 8)

20 riders for the prestigious Club Hill Climb Competition at Bishop Wilton this morning.
Bright conditions, but a cool and nagging headwind for the riders to contend with, in addition to the obligatory vertical ascent.
