Hill-climbing on an Africa Twin looks insane
We featured another of ‘Mad Mick’s’ off-road adventures the other week and now he’s trying out hill climbing on his 230kg adventure bike

The guys and girls of Mary Valley Dirt Bike Riders are back and this week they’ve been tackling some seriously steep hill climbs. With a near vertical climb, most of the riders have some sort of problem getting to the top on their enduro and motocross machines.
