First hillclimb of the season, Teggs Nose, round 1 of the Hill Climb
Project series. I’m racing my sub-5kg BMC build for the first time
properly, coming straight off Dirty Reiver last weekend, with a
seriously stacked field this year. Last year I won. This year is going
to be different.

400w is my Max effort ðŸ˜
Super Humans the lot of you!! great vid!
I've heard so much about this climb. Never looks that bad on camera but I'm sure it's hard
Shame on those drivers…no need!
The pleb in the car took your concentration, the mind plays a massive part in sport.
You sure you didn’t have some loose change in your pocket when you got weighed because you look lean as ever.
Always the next one.
Your low max heart rate is probably indicative of some lingering system fatigue from last week. Good effort, Tom. The video was a great watch

What was last years watts? Maybe the bike is lighter and you are heavier and it balances 🤣
Wow, that was a good effort, but Alex was FLYING, holy!
Is always interesting looking at hillclimb challenge results on strava etc and seeing where the guys around you gained or lost seconds. As often so close at the end between lots of people. Frustrating spinning out on the downhill bits though!
A 5min 35sec at the top of the board 😲💪
Audi A3 – what a surprise
It’s a strong rider who performs so well in different disciplines…
Always a stupid car behind you when you least want one, always happens on my rides.
That gravel had to be in the legs!!
