Career
Hill was suspended for 2 years from cycling by the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority for testing positive for Methylhexanamine during the 2012 Tour of Tasmania. Hill admitted the error immediately after a teammate gave him the substance instead of caffeine. Hill tried to fight his suspension stating it was unfair he was given 2 years when people who purposely blood doped got 6 months.In the 2016 cycling season Hill was supposed to ride for Dynamo Cover, a new UCI Continental team which folded before it even started racing. This left Hill among others looking for a new team for 2016. At the National race, Cootamundra Annual Classic, Hill finished in first place, his partner Rebecca Wiasak also won her event. In 2017 at the Tour of Hainan Hill crashed during stage 8 and fractured 7 vertebrae ending his season early. At the 2020 Herald Sun Tour Hill spent every stage in the breakaway earning himself enough points to win the green sprinters jersey.
Since 2020 Hill has been working as a cycling coach at Today's Plan.
