Route

This years route is published on Map My Ride. You will note that the distance is significantly longer this year. This is because we will begin with a nice easy ride out the bike path. The first KOM isn't until mile 20. 11 of last year's 13 climbs are still there, but I have added 2 new challenges: Jug Hollow Rd in Valley Forge and Valley Rd. in Paoli. Here is the full list:

1. Jug Hollow Rd.
2. North Valley Rd a.k.a "The Paoli Wall"
3. County Line Rd
4. Hillside/New Delhaven
5. Pleasant Ave.
6. Spring Garden/Spruce St./Pine St./Riverview Ln.
7. Bryn Trydden Dr.*
8. Hart's Lane
9. Hagy's Mill Rd.
10. Port Royal Ave.
11. Jefferson St./Ashland Ave./Price St./Fairview Ave a.k.a. "La Collina"
12. Righter's Mill Rd.
13. Levering St./Lyceum Ave. a.k.a. "The Manayunk Wall"

* Due to the fact that Bryn Trydden Dr. is a narrow private drive with a turn around at the bottom, only riders that have scored points in the first 6 climbs will go in the first wave of riders. Riders must start at the bottom with one foot on the ground.
