  1. Big event, big crowds! And the video gets the atmosphere of it all, especially when the riders were following close on one another or passing at the end of such a long course. (Why does some fellow think it clever to turn up brandishing a giant asthma inhaler, presumably left over from the years of baiting Chris Froome? Seems to me insulting to the competitors, and not remotely funny.)

  2. i highly respect the hussle of competeing but doing hill climb on disc brakes will always be funny to me.
    Great footage, thank you! πŸ™‚

  3. BIG IT UP for Hamish Armitt #380 coming 6th place – WELL ABOVE his placing out of 480 riders with bib position correlating negatively to your expected finish time – re: #480 Feather went last because they expected him to finish first – not the worst of the worst in the Brit pico pero PICANTE climbs

  4. this is my missis account, but i just had to drop a comment & say what brilliant footage of what looks like an amazing day out, its the best footage i have seen of this event & i would just like to say thank you m8, you really captured all aspects of this hill climb challenge, well done, i myst train for this & come back & have another go, its not ridiculously steep but just seems to go on for ever when you ride it, last time i done it the head wind was brutal & there was no were to hide or grab a rest bite on parts of the course, apart from drafting behing a rider in front but if they wernt going fast enough & you overtake then the wind would remind you that it was still there………..byt still a great day out.
