Video footage from my GoPro Hero 9 & hero 10 cameras during the climb up Ditchling Beacon on the BHF Charity bike ride from London to Brighton.
The elevation gain is circa 500 feet - depending on what you consider to be the actual starting point!
I am not the youngest of fittest cyclist on the ride, but my goal was to get to the top of all the hills - without stopping or walking.
As well as all the usual cycle training, I also specifically trained to climb up 1 mile long hills ahead of the ride.
My actual 'ride time' was 4 hrs and 5 minutes. I started at 07:00 - and reached Brighton about 12:15. (Therefore deduce that I had circa 40 minutes break + GoPro battery change time during the ride).
My climb was therefore circa 11:30 to 11:45
The actual climb time for me was circa 14.5 minutes. I cut the video length down to circa 10 minutes.
