Fleeman wins British Hill-climb Championships
Cervelo rider takes emphatic 14 second win ahead of local rivals
Daniel Fleeman claimed victory in the 2009 British Hill-climb Championships on Sunday afternoon in Sheffield, England. The Cervelo TestTeam rider finished 14 seconds ahead of Matt Clinton (MikeVaughan.co.uk) and 22 seconds clear of Jim Henderson (Southport CC).
Fleeman covered the short, though brutal 1.1 kilometre ascent of Pea Royd Lane in the Sheffield suburb of Stocksbridge in three minutes and 18. The ProTour rider averaged a shade under 20km/h on the infamous street, which features pitches of up to 20 percent gradient.
