Kop Hill Climb
The Kop Hill Climb is a hillclimb in Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire. The climb was originally established in 1910 but due to a minor accident involving a spectator on the public road that formed the hillclimb, the last competitive event was held on 28 March 1925. The RAC then banned all motorsport on public roads, making the Kop Hill Climb the last of its kind to be run on the public highways in the UK. Since 1999 Kop Hill has been the focus of an annual revival run as a non-competitive, charity event.
==The Kop Hill Climb revival==
The hillclimb was revived in 1999 by the Town Council and the Bean Car Club as part of the Risborough Festival, and has become an annual event again. Today, the Kop Hill Climb revival is run along non-competitive lines, to showcase cars and bikes dating back to the competitive era as well as more modern cars of interest and heritage. The event is run by Kop Hill Climb Ltd, a not-for-profit company manned by unpaid volunteers, which manages the hill climb event for the Buckinghamshire Community Foundation and raises money for local charities.
The climb takes part on a public road with a 1:6 gradient leading to 1:5 with a short 1:4 at its steepest at the top of the climb.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kophillclimb.org.uk/about.html )〕
