Up The Buttress

Up The Buttress Turn up, pay £10, heckle fellow competitors, line up, wish you hadn't heckled fellow competitors, cycle up 1 in 4, hand number in, possibly win new bike.

The buttress is a 400 yard (or 365 metres, if you’re all modern) cobbled hill so steep it has a handrail in parts. As is implied by the name, racers start at the bottom, and climb to the top, using your choice of (road legal) bicicular machinery to do so. Everyone who reaches the top is entered into a raffle to win a new bike
