Rode to the top of Spruce Knob!

Yeah, part of my obsession of riding up excessively large hills caused me to find a larger hill to ride up! So, figured Spruce Knob would be a good challenge.


So nerd specs for you.

44.1 mile ride

3504' elevation gain

4846' max elevation

Actually it ended up being a mellower grade then I was expecting. Easier then the dirty dozen for sure.

That's a great view, I'll bet the downhill was sick.

I love that area down there, Seneca Rocks is very cool. It never occurred to me to do any road riding down that way. I need to head down there.

Reddish Knob is another great climb not too far from there.

That looks awesome. I would be interested in doing that and scouting for others in the next few weeks. I don't venture out too far right now but, thoroughly enjoy rt 40 to the Uniontown Summit and descending Jumonville before work sometimes if I wake up at 4:30: Victory hwy Climb
