Climbing on the S40

Two boxes checked off for the S40. A couple of local climbs which are fairly tough but short that I’ve used for measuring progress around my area.

Paris Mountain in Greenville, SC, not terribly steep and a 15 - 20 minute climb for me usually. The climb has a kicker at the peak of 15% or so.

Glassy Mountain in Pickens, SC, a shorter climb of 15 minutes or so usually. What this climb lacks in distance it makes up for with grade. Multiple sections of 17-19% grade with poor pavement.

A little slower and than my fastest up on a conventional bike but - who cares!

✅ ✅ for both.
Couldn’t be happier - S40 checks of any ride that I’ll do
