Title-A Daring Climb
Motorcyclists (1 ? H.P. Villiers' engine) successfully over come the 1 in 21/2 gradient on Screw Hill, Carnarvan.
There is a shot taken from the top of a hill looking down onto a rough path which motorcyclists are using to ride up the hill; crowds of spectators line the track. From some of the angles that the camera is at, it is possible to see just how steep the road is. There is a final shot of two of the cyclists posing with their bikes and a crowd of spectators gathered behind them.
