National Hill Climb Championships vlog, the big one. My 5.5kg BMC hill climb bike with a few budget AliExpress upgrades, and a full gas effort up one of the toughest climbs in the UK calendar.
Not the perfect build up for me this year, after a DNF at the gravel world championships , but I still wanted to give it everything and experience this event properly and end my season on a high. Watch along for my pre race nerves, a brutal 3 minute effort, and seeing how the fastest riders in the country get it done.
