In our centenary year in 2023 we returned to the home of the club hill climb – Vicarage Hill, Benfleet.

First held in Benfleet in 1924, it is the Club's only current sprint event! Channel your inner Matt Richardson or Emma Finucaine to see what heart rate and watts you can achieve in this shortest of events. Practice runs in the week's before will allow you to consider if it's a one gear hill, or will you use a bigger gear out of the start, and change at your chosen point!

​

Distance: 660yds (603.5 metres or 0.375 mile). Course details and elevation at bottom of page.

Jason White is the current course record holder, see the previous champions list, and the "Hill of Fame" table.
