Re: tough climbs? Glade Hill Rd

I got to try Glade Hill Rd -- thanks to Mandelea's suggestion.

Not only it is a tough climb (I can believe it's the toughest around) --
it also has some scenic sections -- and an interesting mix of
steepnesses and curves.

Too bad Glade Hill is so far out west -- but as Mandelea's route map
showed, there's some other climbs out there. Sugar Loaf was the
closest, so I went up and down that one first.
