Hill Climb-1

The cooling climes of Sri Lanka's hill-country were once as delicious to British colonizers as a warming cup of tea. The best tea plantations are high up here, along with what's left of the ‘Best of British’, in the hill station town of Nuwara-Eliya.
Like a misplaced piece of mother country, here colonial traditions are proudly maintained  and even improved. Cricket isn't the only activity where the English are being run out by Sri Lankans. Once a year Nuwara-Eliya’s tranquil tea plantations give way to Motorhead's, ‘planting their pedals to the metal’.
A hill climb is pretty much what it sounds like: find a motor of any shape or size; take off from a starting line; and drive up a hill as fast as you possibly can.
Disgracefully, it’s been sixty years since an Englishman has won this race; so I decided there was only one gentlemanly thing to do: ‘shoulder the white man's burden’  and win the Hill Climb back for the mother-country!
Competition! From bottom to top, 35 seconds is the fastest time ever; but the man to beat this year is the local pure-bred racing stud, Nishan Wurasurya...
