@@roryglobalactivites4054 🤣🤣🤣 Knowing I couldn’t travel up the day before the event it would have been a bit daft not to recon it. I just didn’t anticipate a monsoon 🤷‍♂️

Nice videos dude. Appreciated. Will be a big battle for the junior boys podium. Last 6 riders all hitters. Don't miss that one.

It’s going to be mental with the last several riders coming through, can’t wait.

got to think the lower gradient will suit Laverack more than Feather

So hard to call it but don’t underestimate the other guys who’ve been performing very well this year.

Well im backing my fellow welsh local riders Ed and ili Gardner, Illi trains virtually a few miles from where i live in South Wales pass her quite regularly the opposite way mind, an absolute insane climber. Great content as usual and all the best on sunday.

I met her at my local Jackson Bridge hill climb-she’s incredibly down to earth and friendly. She’s also super lightweight, so with this climb lacking any particularly very steep sections, it’ll be interesting to see how she performs. I’ll hopefully catch her on camera.

It's certainly going to be better weather on the day. Best of luck, buddy 👍

Nice one mate. I didn't really want to look at my bike on Wednesday, never mind do a hill climb. Hope you get the wheel sorted in time if that's the bike you're doing it on!

No hairpins or massive gradient changes just a pure straight up slogger by looks of it. Get it wrong and you will lose a ton of time possibly. See if the top guys still win by as much as usual then.
