The British National Hill Climb Championship is a hill climbing competition held annually by Cycling Time Trials with the location varying year on year. The first edition was in 1944 and it has been won by some of the best all-round British cyclists, such as Brian Robinson , Paul Curran , Malcolm Elliot , Chris Boardman and Jeff Williams .
The 11th and 12th-placed drivers, and any who fail to complete the course, receive no points. An extra point is given to any driver in the run-off who breaks the outright hill record as it stood at the beginning of the day. As of 2022 there are 30 runoffs, but drivers can only count their 24 best results towards their final points total.
