and made it up on the first try.














I ran up...that is the CRAZIEST thing that I have ever seen!  I cannot fathom riding it at this point in my battle for fitness.  Even with my road bike with triples.

Ran up it? In your bike shoes? I would give you points for that.

Nope, I jogged up the last part...the closed road part that you cannot even traverse to make it easier.  I was wearing sandals, though!

That's a pretty tough hill, got up it last year in the race. I hit it straight on, no zig zag or out of the saddle. If you get out of the saddle the rear wheel doesn't have enough weight and tends to slip, that's how some people fall. My buddy, got up it last year on his TTX, without problems, but he is an animal, I climb it with a classic compact gear set.

And is it the same as the "Savageman" in Maryland?
