 185  |  Subject: Best Seattle/North Hill workHi all-- now that the sun is out, it's time to hit the road! I'm looking for a great hill workout. Only have a tri bike, so preference is for low-/no- traffic. I live in North Seattle, so anything in the top half of Lake Washington or up I5 is game. What are your favorite hill workouts around here? Thanks! |

Very few cars back in this residential area. x2 Also, I enjoy heading up Brookside onto 180th/Perkins from the Burke. Almost 2 miles to the light at 15th Ave NE with a little more climbing to the top after it. |

Master 2235 Pacific Northwest | Subject: RE: Best Seattle/North Hill work Originally posted by magic http://www.bicycleclimbs.com/ I love this list, I am proud to say I have done "most" of them in the past couple of years. I am in a competition with some friends to see who can do the most this year. Marked a few off this morning.
