Zwift VTTA Hill climb Championships

The first VTTA virtual hill climb on Saturday 1st Nov drew an entry of 54 with 39 toeing the line and 31 finishing. Of these thirteen were VTTA members, sadly including only one lady entrant. The course was the tricky 4.6km ZG25 which was used to host the elite racer's Climb Championship in the 2025 Zwift Games. It has a slightly downhill start then hits an accurate representation of Fox Hill with 1.6km uphill and 800 metres slight downhill to the finish, so allocating effort was key.

The two finishers from the Midlands (I didn’t finish as I was, again, behind the camera) were Andrew Simpkins 6th in 11.27 AAT (12.29 actual) with Adrian Osborne 12th in 13.08 AAT (13.53 actual).
