Comments: Thanks to everybody who turned up today, the riders who rode and my fellow Merseyside Wheelers members who acted as race officials. Our thanks go to Bill Lloyd Southport CC who kindly rode out and up the climb to act as our finish Timekeeper. Congratulations to Michael Ashurst, Maxgear RT on his fast ride. The fastest Female was Louise Hogg, Liverpool Phoenix CC. Well done also to those riders for whom this was their first Hill Climb.
