2025 World Championships Penny Farthing Hill Climb TT in Eastbourne!

I headed to Eastbourne to witness the 2025 World Championships Penny Farthing Hill Climb TT !
Setting off from the Grand Hotel in Eastbourne, riders take their vintage or modern penny farthings up a brutal 150m climb over 4.69km to the top of Beachy Head; one of the most scenic viewpoints in Sussex, UK

It’s a true spectacle of classic bicycles and a celebration of cycling history!
