    1. SCCC Hill Climb Champs – Planned a new design to the hill club champs. Instead of 1 hill climb on the Cat & fiddle in August we plan to make this an all-rounder style hill climb.

There will be 3 climbs all done on one day, probably as part of a clubrun in September. The champion will be the one with the accumulative fastest time over the 3 climbs. A rider can ride 1 or all of them, but the champion will be from all 3 climbs. There will be a classic short sharp climb, a general peak district mile(ish) climb, then a generally faster hill. This will suit all types of climbers. The choice for 2013 will be……

1) The Cobbled Climb out of Bollington

2) The Brickworks

3) Derbyshire bridge
