Great effort on the climb fella. Video does a mint job of capturing the event and atmosphere.

[@BeardonaBike]

@@D0ntMessWithTheZ0han Glad you like it, for those that didn’t attend hopefully it set the scene

[@grahamthecyclist]

Great video as always, and well done on conquering the hill! Shame we didn't manage to bump into one another at the event, also gutted I didn't manage to partake this year. Still, managed to get a video done which I've just posted! Hopefully, catch up at the next one 😁🚴🏽‍♂

I watched this as soon as it came out - it's fantastic! I should have posted a comment at the time (Sharon Dyson)

[@BeardonaBike]

Thanks for the comment it means a lot Sharon 🙌

[@CycletheNation]

That didn't take you long! Good to see you again mate and nice job. That 7 year old girl melted my heart! Determination overload!

[@BeardonaBike]

@@CycletheNation What a moment she was the rider of the day and I think everyone was in panic thinking another rider might come from behind. Glad superman with a Mohawk was there to save the day 🙌🤣

[@Olivia.French]

What a day and what a video! Excited for next year already! (And maybe see you on Peaslows before 😝👀)

[@BeardonaBike]

@@Olivia.French Sign up now before you come to your senses 🤣

[@ultragobi]

I was the guy all in Orange (26) you got me on the line just before I started. Top work on your climb and on the video. You captured the atmosphere well.

[@BeardonaBike]

@@ultragobi well done mate what a day, same again next year?

[@ultragobi]

@BeardonaBike I haven't even checked what course or where next year is. I did 3 HCs this season including Nationals and only entered as I was already there was a cycloX race. However, I did enjoy the day a lot.

[@petervonl]

Wow, that was electric. What a vibe. Great job, sir! 👍

[@BeardonaBike]

@@petervonl There a lot to take in but it pretty much sums it up

[@thedoginside]

That my friend, was a great video. Cheers!

[@BeardonaBike]

Glad you enjoyed it mate 🙌

[@2freeheel]

What an absolutely brilliant video, top man again and a huge thanks too for all the time and effort you've put in. 👏👏👏

[@BeardonaBike]

Mate I appreciate the comments, just glad people like it. Wanted to do something more polished but I was rushed to get it out.

[@davedoohan2732]

Wow I can taste the effort in that ride…and then you have to navigate Rapid Rich and his Fresh Legs! Great video!

[@BeardonaBike]

@@davedoohan2732 haha I saw the coat, “oh that’s Rapid” then I saw the legs “WTH is that” 🤣 Took my mind off it for a few seconds. What a legend

[@BeardonaBike]

@@davedoohan2732 he’s gonna have his work cut out next year they should have a prize for best prop competition

[@chrissmart467]

Great watch. What was the soundtrack? It was class

[@BeardonaBike]

Scroll down in the description there are links to it. It was the most funky and chaotic thing I could find. I had to drowns out the pop songs playing on the street otherwise I get a KZbin Tube copyright claim against me.

[@SloopJohnBeeRockabilly]

One event I regret not racing in my day was the HC Nationals. In my heyday I weighed 8st 10lb. Wouldn’t have won but I would have enjoyed it - if you can!!🚴

[@BeardonaBike]

You’d probably be perfect for next years which is in Matlock I believe. Short sharp and steep

[@DanTuber]

Did Feather win again? He was flying up that last bit.

[@BeardonaBike]

@@DanTuber Nope Harry Mac won

[@BeardonaBike]

I just realised I didn’t mention it 🤦

[@NickBaggaley-t5d]

Great vid. What was your time?

[@BeardonaBike]

5:13 wanted under 5, usual case for me warm up was rubbish legs blew up early and late with my all out effort. I lost focus with the crowd and forgot everything I was going. Power was down an average of 60w from my best hill climb this season 🤷‍♂️

[@NickBaggaley-t5d]

@BeardonaBike good effort all the same. Will have to give it a go next year 👌

[@philadams9254]

[@philadams9254]

@@BeardonaBike No, I couldn't make it this year. My reaction was to the girl in the polka dots. Crazy kit!!!

[@BeardonaBike]

@@philadams9254 It was so good might as well be a bit different 😆

[@kevstephen9393]

Well done on putting this together m8, bad enough to climb this, I would imagine, but getting chased by the fashion police as well... What are them shorts 😂

[@BeardonaBike]

Haha I looked and though oh is that Jimmy then what the heck 🤣

[@simonbromfield5419]

Two every in the year I look forward to the most Notting Hill Carnival & NHC. Out to Richard Stoodley !

@@phil_d Haha from the 90’s

[@pinnaclewd]

Well done 👌 PS: Dont think Ed L is going to be very happy :-(

[@BeardonaBike]

@@pinnaclewd I don’t think the shorter climbs are suited to him. Although when spoke to him after he was happy with his performance and power output. Let’s see what happens next year apparently it’s going to be even shorter 😳

Don’t you ride with doctor and the rest anymore ?

@@joedavies6952 Not ridden with them for a while as I’d been putting in training for Hill Climbs not done much with my club to be fair. Going GC with Altaf in December so expect some laughs.

Luckily didn’t happen to me on this one, but it breaks you when happens especially near the finish line 🤣
