National Hill Climb Cycling Championships ‘22 - Sports Photography Insight

On the 30th October, with one hour of extra sleep, or not, I attended the National Hill Climbing Cycling Championships at Old Shoe Hill, Llangollen, North Wales for some sports photography. This was the second Nationals that I have attended in this discipline of lightweight bikes and plenty of gurning faces. On this occasion I was being paid to help secure bike photographs for Road.cc and take personal shots too. It was a fabulous day's event, with a mixture of weather, loud crowds and the odd whiff of deep heat from riders going past.
