For us flatlanders, anything more than 2% is a heart attack waiting to happen. Holy inclined cow, Batman! 38%

I'd be impressed with the guy on the segway if he had actually ran the hill.

Ugh. I'm sweating just looking at those pictures. I'm in full agreement with Bonkin. I had the treadmill set to 4% this morning and thought that was a struggle.

sorry to resurrect a dead thread, but the #1 steepest street is only a few miles from my house...it's one of many. a bunch of bicyclists have this thing called the Dirty Dozen, where they ride 12 of the steepest hills in pittsburgh (canton st included).

gotta give them credit. i don't know if i could even walk up it Tongue
He taught me to run high on my toes. I will always remember his words: run proud and remember you are alive.
