Well Michael Newton & Connor Newsome rode an anti-gravity Sheffrec C.C. hill climb !
Where, from Low Bradfield to High Bradfield (well it would be that way wouldn`t it) along Woodfall Lane which was closed for the event, near Oughtibridge.
Connor shot up the hill like a rat up a drain pipe in 2mins 24.9secs, for 8th place. Wow !
I haven`t heard of Connor before so it`s possibly his first event, double Wow !
Michael trammed up the hill at a slightly more sedate pace to 20th place 16secs adrift of Connor. Great times by both of you, chapeau lads, you deserved that pint afterwards.
Winner, Andy Nichols (Team Lifting Gears/Cycles in Motion) 2mins 02.5secs).
Every now and then B.R.C. produces an outstanding hill climber ..... have we produced another ... I hope so. Now more practice, Winnats Pass beckons in October.
