Over 600 riders took on the Gran Fondo in Maryland last weekend

Well know cyclist Jeremiah Bishop quoted as saying "125 miles; 16,000ft; 7hrs 50mins; fog; rain... Garrett County #GranFondo one of the toughest road rides ever done! Amazing feeling"

Climbing was extraordinary in 2014; new climb records were set on all climbs except for climb #1: White Rock. 

For anyone interested, the last finisher of the 125-mile route that boasts 16,500 feet (you read that right, sixteen thousand five hundred) vertical feet of climbing, took over 13 hours to complete, click here for the full scoop.
