Ticknock Hill Climb challange

I don't know if that's fast or slow but I was giving it 95% today, start at Taylor's and finish at the end of the tarmac road that goes to the aerials. (Straight up from Taylor's under M50)

Distance: 4.08 km

My time today: 17:21:10

I plan to do this once a week, it only took me 1h from D6 to get there, chat to some IMBRC lads at the top and cycle back home.

That seems quick enough max!!

Post up when your doing it next week and i'll join you. Knee is getting there, looking to get back into some structured training next week.

You can start with me but I'm going at my own pace which most would describe as quite savage.
Hill climb is probably the worst thing you can do as training after a knee injury, I'd start with some steady base miles if I were you.

well said Max !! dead right !!

I might head over and give this a bash next week.

Thanks Max, i've been out spinning recently and its coming along nicely. Physio has told me to start pushing it more from next week.

There is no doubt you'd leave me behind, but at least I'd have a target to chase.

Max here is the results from last year climb. Yesterday time wasn’t bad but you can do much better! See you time from last year climb.

Wait a minute..have you lost your freakin mind , Max..Tuesday is big Mountain Night ..1,000,000 metres of Tarmac vs 90 minutes of testicle shrivelling manhood expanding offroad mayhem...
you're a crazy person !! I'm getting a helicopter with a Snickers firing minigun !!
Miguel you Portugese fruitcake , thats the Kilmashogue lane Hill Climb !

Different climb altogether Miguel ..... have you forgotten our geography so quickly? Max is climbing up Ticknock Hill rather than Kilmashogue!

the thoughts of riding all the way from town to just ride up Ticknock tarmac is absurd to me !!
You've gone too far this time Max !!

I had to go to Kildare to fix the Horn, only had 1h left to train so it was the best possible choice.

ah you were on your roadbike so ! Now I understand ..you poor man !

You are right! All those manes confuse me, I never get them!!! Sorry for the post. I now remember were it is. I have to do a map with all the names and areas.

there's a flute doctor in Kildare?
The infamous Docktor C0cktor no doubt, I've heard of him, he's supposed to be pretty handy......

yeah that's him, he's going to put a bandage over it...after he checks out the crack
