Distance: 3.3 miles
Climbing: 940 feet
Another nice climb located off Route 5S in the Rotterdam Junction-Mariaville Lake area, Pattersonville-Rynex Corners Road offers a slightly longer and less difficult alternative to the top of the ridge than Crawford Road. Don't worry, you'll find that it's still steep and long enough, as you grind your way up close to 1000 feet of vertical.
I rode this as an intermediate rider the other day. It's a challenging yet rewarding stretch. And the plus is all new pavement from the bottom to the top.
