MONSAL HEAD HILL CLIMB

Great atmosphere at the Monsal Head hill climb today for Richard and son-in-law Andy. Adam, Dawn, Andy Wheat and self out to see the action along with Richard and Dawn's daughter Emily.

Lovely support from BBC riders at Monsal today, thanks gang.

Richard ended up 144th in a field of 214 riders.

Puts it into perspective how amazing the top hill climbers really are.

Get to the national in Matlock and see for yourselves.
