    Road cycling

    The start of the Magnolia Road climb from Boulder Canyon Drive up to the Twin Sisters Spur junction offers a famously brutal road biking test right out of the gate on a paved road, though the pavement can be rough in spots. Leaving Highway 119, Magnolia Road immediately ascends with punishing, double-digit gradients that rank among the steepest paved miles in the area. As you grind up this initial section you'll climb steeply through foothills, potentially catching glimpses of Boulder Canyon below.
