2013-07-11 Urban Hill Climb 2013

Cancelled as the council did not tell the residents. Road is full of cars which won't be moved (due process etc) ???

Residents moved their motors in previous years? Blimey I bet that went down well. NIMBYs

Shame, how annoying and disappointing.

2013 is proving to be a troublesome sibling for cycling compared to the benevolence of 2012

About the parked cars thing, there's usually the odd one or two cars parked on the ascent of Swains World, but not too many, it's still perfectly fine to ride up; it's the annoyance of a black cab approaching just at the steepest part of the hill whilst zig zagging that's the real problem!

and we pay for these shitnuts to do things like this..

Come to think of it there were no notices of road closure plans or parking bay suspensions posted when I went up there Tuesday.

Pirate has it.

2012 - the signs appeared about a 10 days before.
2013 - I missed this thread and only heard about it at the Flask on Tuesday night. There are remnants of both roadworks and residential building development on Swain's.

Come to the 5th birthday and do the death TT on the 30th.

Shame this didn't happen as it has been good every year.

It may happen yet.

This - hill climb doesn't take into account your descending skillz Death TT is for the whole skillset.

See you on the 30th.

Best pub in London for me...

i would second that

i'd third it!

like the piano, Scotch eggs, outside space vibe, and even the railings for cycle parking

It may happen yet.

Is there any update on this?

Is there going to be an event this year?
