I have been wanting to climb that hill.
I know it is hard.
I know that I may not be ready for it.
But,
the lure to do it was always there.
So, I just couldn't pass the chance when the weather was great,
and may not last long...
This is where I started. It is located north of Paseo and Barstow.
From there I headed north till I reached Elena.
I went west, hoping to catch San Pedro.
But Elena ended at Louisiana,
so I headed south from there.
I made a right on Eagle Rock and got to San Pedro.
Below is the end of the pavement on San Pedro.
I walked the bike across the dirt.
I got to the exit road from I-25 and headed to Tramway.
The stop before the climb.
To climb or not to climb???
I did!
Along that short 4.5 miles, 860 ft elevation change, I stopped 6 times.
Others did better.
It was worth it. I saw two bisons!
After the climb, it was all downhill.
I stopped by the church at Paseo and Tennyson.
I discovered that Tennyson actually goes under Paseo!
From there, I took Holly.
I decided to go out to Paseo and take the bike path.
There were to many speed bumps on Holly.
Last 2 photos are from Paseo and Browning.
It was a hard 14 miles ride.
Will I do it again?
Definitely!
I shall return in 6 months!
