Bad news I`m afraid. our county council says we can`t go ahead with the hill climb because I haven’t done a risk assement,  apparently I should of done one at least 4 months beforehand. And they told me yesterday! Bloody Idiots. They did say we could go still go ahead off our own back, but because the road closure is covered for all vehicles AND bikes, if the police see us cycling up or down the hill we will get a £120 fine.

It really is annoying that people put in so much time and effort to organise events like this for public entertainment, and get told we cant do it because of insurance and health and safety crap. I get enough of that in work, don’t need it to cycle up a hill. Makes you think why we bother trying to put on events like this.
