This is the big one, Cycling California's Steepest Streets "Season Finale." I was surprised to learn in my research that San Francisco has several streets (Broderick St., Baker St., and Bradford St.) steeper than the Guinness World Record Offical "World's Steepest Street."

Way back in the early 2000's there was a pro bicycle race in San Francisco. Lance and the Posties were in it. I think it was called the Tour of San Francisco or something . The riders made multiple laps of the course which included some really steep hills. The nice part of watching the race on one of the hills was that the riders were really going slow so you could see then struggle and sweat. Some riders even zig zagged up the hills. I wish SF still had a big time pro race on the steep streets.

There was also a short, steep prologue time trial up Telegraph Hill to start the Coors Classic in 1986, shortly after the Tour de France had ended. Ron Kiefel of the 7-11 team, known for his uphill sprinting ability, won the stage by a solid margin. It was an impressive sight.

Hi from Dunedin. Those San Francisco climbs definitely are steeper than Baldwin. The thing about Baldwin is that it's just a perfectly regular normal street, one of hundreds of steep ones in Dunedin, and when I was a kid we never really thought much about it. It was no tourist attraction then. My youngest son has the KOM.

This was SO awesome. What an inspired, perfect choice of music when you finally started climbing from the wall-push.! It took my breath away and I found myself clenching the blanket the whole way up. I remember before I got into cycling seeing the cyclists going up hills at as snail's pace and I'd joke "it'd be faster to just get off and walk, yada yada" and while that may be true... what former me didn't know is that: yes, the ground IS lava and you HAVE TO stay on the bike or your feet WILL literally BURN if they touch the ground. Now I know and knowing is half the battle.

The steep hills of San Francisco are the reason for high maintenance costs on diesel buses in the city's public transportation system. Buses have broken down on Sacramento Street going up Nob Hill forcing passengers to disembark and walk up the hill. Three diesel bus lines have since been converted to electric trolleybuses.

When I lived in San Francisco, I would take visiting friends & family down that section of Filbert Street. The approach from the west is relatively flat, and then you see the yellow diamond sign "Steep Hill." Once you roll aver the crest it s definitely quite steep. I called this block the Filbert Flop. Baker Street is also quite steep.

I've lived in SF for a while and I bought my first ever road bike. I was living in Lombard and there are a lot of ridiculous climbing there. My favourite place though is a very soft climb to the hawk hill towards Rodeo Beach

Great video, I think you are now ready for a real challenge…. Salita Scanubbia in Italy, a pleasant 45% for several KMs…. 😅

I really enjoyed this video. I've been planning to ride some of the steepest climbs in the USA. Looks like I only have to go to San Francisco and I can try several. Next year I'm attempting another climbing challenge, beach to Mauna Kea Summit in Kona, HI, USA. I've heard its the Strava segment with the longest continuous climb (13,788 ft elevation difference) in the world, but as I learned on this video, you have to ask the world's cycling community because maybe someone knows of an even longer continuous climb somewhere on the globe.

I live down the street from those Baker steps. Mad props, they’re so hard even to just walk up lol

Come on down to Boulder, colorado, and try the climb up flagstaff mountain. I struggled with a 1500w ebike!
