Have just looked at the details of the Prologue on Sunday and noticed that they've classified 'the hill' as a 3rd Cat and given it KOM points! (Though not sure how this will work within a prologue format...will they have a split time at the 'crest'?)

Surely even in an un-mountainous race like the TOB they're having a laugh......south Norwood Hill must be HC then!!

I used to ride the full circuit back in the 70's, and believe me from the bottom of the hill round the back of the circuit to the crest within sight of the finish is a damn tough climb - especially when doing it 20 times.
