Road Ride Report 7 Sisters

Good idea. I agree on Clubhouse.

Niguel would be good to add after Highlands.

I calculated the grade to be about 8% overall from Alicia/Niguel to the top of Niguel.

While Eastwing/Westing (off Aliso Creek on the way back) aren't as impressive they are worth considering.

Wolverine Way (also off of Aliso Creek) which leads to the local high school has a nice grade that I've calculated to be around 10%.

I should probably stop now...

 

I'll do some recon soon and supersize this glorious ride we have all come to love.
Goal is 10,000 feet. It's on like donkey kong.
I have heard and thought about doing it backwards but I think it would be cooler to add on new blood rather then repeat.

 

agreed! plus I just like saying I did 7 Sisters. :lol:

 

I'd be down also.

 

haha, this has been on my mind... I'll make up a route(keeping milage low) and see what I can come up with, hopefully my stock gearing will get me thru the day..

 

I keep talking about doing it and then reversing it, more climbing than VQ! If anybody does it, post it and I'll try to come. A hard day for sure!

 

I actually took the time to drive the route yesterday and found 4 streets that would be worthy of adding on. My guess at this point is this would make the ride about 8000 feet, I'll ride it and report back.

 

which additional streets were you thinking? I'm interested!

 

im all for it! i may do this route next week mon or tue during the day before i leave for AZ.

 

Eleven Sisters has a nice ring to it! Lemme know when you want to attempt this. I'll make sure not to eat Korean Food the night before!
