For the seventh week of the NCC Zwift Summer Hill Climb/Time Trial series, we ascended Leith Hill in London.
Leith Hill is 1.21 miles and has an average gradient of 7%.
Of the seven participants, we had six riders in the group ride. Welcome to our new participants, Jamie and John! As has become routine, we used Discord’s video chat.
Charlie, Jamie, John, Melissa, and Teddy all earned Strava PRs for the climb. Melissa improved her NCC QOM for the hill.
Here are today’s results:
