I know every few months someone posts asking about any hill climb events, wells here's one coming up and registration is open:

Looks like a pretty cool event, racing the full mountain road 3.7 miles all paved. I'd love to enter it and get in a few runs but I doubt I can make it up for the hole weekend, maybe try for one day to check it out.

$160 to register/compete for the weekend, spectating is free and they are also looking for volunteers.

Yeah except they exclude most of us. Fuck that.

Is it just me or is it strange that they judge by handlebar type. An sv650n or my streetfighter can run but my S can't. I understand that they don't want a bunch of isle of Mann wannabe sportbikes out there but it seems like different rules would better suit them.

Not much of a race if they exclude race bikes.

It's like calling an EX500 a sport bike.
