Pickering & District Motor Club host Extreme Hillclimb event at Kilburn
Pickering and District Motor Club are once again returning to Kilburn to run their extreme off-road motorcycle hill climb event on Sunday, June 21.
The club has run the annual event since 2011 and has seen its popularity increase with spectators and riders alike, now becoming a highlight of the North Yorkshire offroad motorbiking calendar.
The event attracts riders from across the North of England with previous champions returning to do battle once again in various classes to suit different machines and rider age groups. The competition is in the form of a knockout competition with two riders going head-to-head up the hill which steepens to a near vertical slope at the top just before the finish line.
PDMC President Matt Stubbings said “We’re delighted Pickering & District Motor Club are once again able to run the Hillclimb. PDMC aim to keep things simple, a safe, enjoyable environment that’s inclusive to all while providing some high-class competitive racing. Anyone with a passion for motorsport can get involved with PDMC, whether it’s setting tracks up, helping organise events, spectate, race or even a combination of all of the above.”
Excellent views of the competition are available from the bottom of the hill, or for the more energetic spectator they can climb to a spectator area at the top.
