I posted this around a year ago, but it is worth reposting.  With GD full of political and other threads that can get people down, this is a nice change.  Not to mention, we have new folks on here who haven't seen the video.

Hillclimbs are the epitome of "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth"

Cool video, thanks for posting.

I used to hillclimb in Holt, North of KC, back in the day.

I'm half way through.

Is it 18 minutes of failure or does at least one person make it?

Buddy used to do this . Had 3 bikes he raced  Stock class , Modified and Pro ( or Unlimited ) cant remember . Pro bike was a Honda with a built 1100cc GxxR motor with 2 kits of Nitrous , 2' extended swingarm and 3" long bolts in the rear tire to act as studs . Im not much of a dirt bike guy but when he fired that bike up , it brought a smile to my face . Watching the acceleration that bike had was insane,  when he hit the Nos it was a new level of insane .

Hey, at least one guy managed to launch his bike over the finish line!

The 2 morons on the same rope kept on nearly knocking each other over.

We had a coal mine that we road bike in. One spot for as called the “ the wall”. It was one steep hill but only about 60% as tall as the one in the video. Not only was it a bitch to get up but the trip back down was quite a ride.

It had a creek at the bottom so you couldn’t get much of a run at it. Best advice I was given before I tried it the first time, “ put your nose on the front tire and don’t let off the throttle.

Seems like an expensive sport.

Start with a $10K bike, spend many hours and thousands of dollars modding, aim it at a 87 degree steep mountain side and turn it into scrap metal in 12 seconds.

Who the he’ll is paying for these bikes?  No way I would attempt when 99.9% certain my bike gets trashed.
Fist few runs, there are a bunch of small kids at the bottom of the hill in the path of falling bikes.
Are the rope guys wearing clown shoes?  Pathetic.

Other than that, pretty cool.

This and also break your wrist and ankle and have to pay the associated medical bills. Looks fun, but I'm too poor and pussified to do that.

At first I was like "That doesn't look bad. What's the big fuss?"

Then I was like "Oh, he almost made it!"

Then I was like "OH MY GOD."

Then I was like "OHHH MYYY GODDD!!!"

Then I was like "Whew, he stopped. It's over."

Then I was like "What's that little dot that looks like it's getting bigger?"

Then I was like "GET OUT OF THE WAY!!! IT'S COMING STRAIGHT FOR YOU!"

Then I was like "This guy's crazy!"

Then I was like "How the heck did all that just happen and he's ok?"

I think a lot of those guys underestimate the amount of rear (and probably front) rebound damping they need.

Seems to be a huge amount of lack of HP on many of those bikes. Or lack of RPMs, i.e. 4-strokers?
