For old times sake - Cossey's Farm Road 2014
I mounted my Go Pro camera on the roof of my 16v Mk2 Escort and took a sedate drive up these once iconic hillclimb roads.
Although the roads have been altered when being tar sealed and the corners have all been given nice radius's it's still possible to make out just why these roads were so much fun.
Hope these video's bring back some memories

Cosseys Farm Hill Climb the article from March 1967 NZ Herald the first meeting
Posted on the NSCC thread but should be here.
An article about when the Hill was first used - the Cossey's were great people and their farm track was used from 1967 into the 1980's.
[ Steve Holmes posted this for me back in 2014 - as noted in an earlier post on this thread ]
