Hi @Eagle_Glenn very much looking forward to this (as much as one does a HC). Is the start of the course at the junction with Mott St?
-
• #3
Good man. Yes it is but you'll need to sign on at the top of the hill first (Owl PH car park) and get your number

We're running this event in conjunction with the Hainault RC. Hainault is providing timekeeping, so if you're planning on riding then best to lurk in the Owl Car park to sign on. Hope to see some of you there - if only to cheer on the riders

It's going to be a nice morning tomorrow so drop all the cr*p off your bikes and race them up Lippitts!

So @Eagle_Glenn, when's this years' HC?
-
• #8
Ha! from 2015
"Lippitts Hill is quite steep but not too long - below 2 mins is a good ride. Ideal for fixed wheel and there's a pub at the top (The Owl) to rehydrate/recover in."
Now I'm not one you young whippets, but 2 mins? Takes me more like 5
So if there is a 2017 edition, I may turn up to cheer on (and drink beer) -

Hope it all goes smoothly!

That's a shame as I remember you were quite fast up the hill. Have a good ride in Oxford!

Lea Valley Mott Street @ 10.oo
Glenn, no idea what number the LVCC one is but we are holding our one up Mott Street at 10.00 am-
Do you want to get in touch to sort out joint entries etc ? -

Thanks. Ours is an interclass against the Hainault. I think some riders might race yours at 10 as well. As a youth I used to do this...which is probably why I never won anything!
Great hill climb - this will be it's 83rd edition!
