You looked really fast going up. Gratz on the win, you made it look easy. I was out on a club run up Burrington Combe on Sunday, I saw you there, I nodded at you as you went past.

I've only fairly recently got interested in hill climbs, do you know if the national hc has ever been held on a fairly long climb? I am sure I would do better on a longer course, the short sharp ones just don't suit me. I think next years is on Dovers hill which is great for me as it is only about 20miles from my house but again, it's a pretty short climb. Anyway, I start at number 58 on sunday so by the time you go up at no. 132 I should be ok to give you a cheer! Good luck.. Dave..
