does anybody know of any hill climb clubs/meets, around exeter? me and jack are interetsed to get our feet and elbows down properly!!

Wiscombe is up near Honiton. Been there to watch a few times, it looks fun. You can do an arrive a ride I think, but I'm not 100% sure of the details, get down to Bikeworx and speak to Jamie, he spent most of last year doing hill climbs. Gotta be brave tho, no tyre warmers allow and it can get awfully slippery under those trees.

Now there's a blast from the past --- remember a 6 wheel Tyrell hitting Martini --- and a Lagonda being used for the Marshall car
Mid '70s I recall

Go on the NHCA site and look through the calendar - there are a few events through the season labelled something like "Give It A Go" where you can just turn up and go for something like £30 ......

Simon is an up hill gardener if that counts...

cheers guys all very helpful!
