So I am sure that my cycling mates won’t agree with this list of climbs, and more importantly, the order of the list. But this is my list — I’d love to see your list. You’ll often find me slogging my way up one or another of these climbs… Now writing about the climbs turned out to be easier than I expected, but getting photos for the climbs has taken a fair amount of work and in more than a few cases, a couple of revisits to the climb for a new set of photos… Nearly all the photos were taken with a phone camera, so quality is pretty variable. I hope this series has inspired you to go out and ride these climbs!
Now that this series is done, I’m taking a break from bike blogging for a while. See you next year!
Nice one. I still have a few to try.
After riding the Clarence Foreshore bike path. Not for a road bike, really.
Maybe you can do a series on cycleways?
Wow. English goes out the window on a Friday afternoon!
These have been a great read the past few weeks. It will be sad now that they arent going to be any more.
Thanks again marc 🙂
Also the list is pretty good 🙂
There is a climb that isnt on there that is great 😉
Poatina (or how ever its spelt) and Black Hills Road.

Great post, slowly ticking them off. Now you need to do “Tasmania’s Top Ten Climbs”. Planning a cycling trip in the distant future.
Thanks Vineyard Paul 🙂 I just need a sponsor and then I’ll happily ride around and photograph and document Tasmania’s top ten climbs!
