I've been riding D2R2 every year since 2016 (except when it got cancelled in 2020) but can't make it this year. Ride date is August 20 and current registration cost is $160. Registration can be transferred to another person so if you've ever wanted to ride it, you can have my registration for...

Following Norm's format for the toughest road climbs in NJ, I'd like to expand further for the toughest road climbs that the riders here rode within the entire USA. I think a good starting point would be to list only climbs that required more than 1,000 feet of climbing. My personal completed...

I've been looking at some challenging rides and came across the Six Gap Century ride in northern Georgia. Apparently 100 miles and a little over 11,000 feet going up on pavement as far as I could tell. I've got D2R2 booked for August as well as the Vermont Challenge but this ride got my...

Just wanted to say Hello to all forum members. I love the challenge and satisfaction of riding hills. Delaware Water Gap and Fort Lee to Bear Mountain route are my favorite places to be in summer while winter is spent riding in Hartshorne Woods / Huber and Allaire. Every year I try to ride up...
