Climbing Up That Hill...

You may have seen this on youtube already, but it's well worth another look. Great short film, that sums up the mental sport very well.

A few of us went to the Andler - Schönberg hillclimb in Belgium last year - it was an unforgettable weekend. Dennis went again this year with his wife in a camper van and said it was just as good. More people got to the top...

We also went to Rachau in Austria a good few years ago, which was incredible and Andler is of the same quality I'd say.

Here's 2018.

We have one locally at Ayen in Correze. I enjoy looking at the bikes, some are quite ‘innovative’. One chap has a BMW R1100 boxer engine mounted sideways with a dog clutch on the crank, must take some bottle to drop the clutch let alone open the throttle. When An enduro bike attempts the same hill it normally gets about 10% of the way up and then stalls or flips.
