Scottish Hill climb Championships. (Eaglesham)

Bonnyton moor hill climb looks a lot easier from the car than it does when your asked to ride up it against the clock, so giving it everything was not going to be nice.
With a fairly easy start you'd be forgiven for starting fast but a very light shower of rain meant the road was a little damp and care was needed on the first few corners. A small slightly steeper section at about 1/3 distance required a few gear changes then onto the fairly steady drag to the finish. A head wind this year made things quite tough on a few of the exposed sections, particularly the final few hundred meters to the finish therefore slowing things down a little. Completing such a lung bursting effort to the top of a moor in Scotland in October is quite something, well done to everyone who raced. Thank you to Imac images for sending a few shots of the day for the gallery.
