Northeast - Looking for Hilly routes in Bergen County

Hello,
can anyone give me directions for some hilly routes from Fair Lawn area?
thanks.

If you have a car just drive to river and ride 9w.

hello nycwtorres and thank you for your quick reply.
i already know 9w/piermont area and those nice hills; i was wondering if you know of any other routes north of fair lawn area.
thanks again

sorry I don't know any specific routes but I know that if you head north west you can find some hilly country. Try google maps "hillcrest ave Hawthorne NJ" and use the terrain view.

I have ridden around Ramapo Mountain State forest, but someone else was leading the ride. But I do remember it being fairly hilly.

If you already know about 9w and piermont, I assume you have been through Pallisades Park Dr. That has some nice hills.

here are your 20 steepest hills in NJ:

West side of Ridgewood. Corsa Terrace, Heights, Crest, Hillcrest, Upper, Glen, Mountain, Valley View.... you get the idea. Those are the hills I grew up on.

Not exactly a worked out route, but this covers some pretty good hills. When I'm back visiting my parents I ride some of these for fun/training.
Looking at the topo I'm guessing there's about 1500 ft of climbing there and a couple of those hills are ...challenging.:D

thank you all for your help!
i will be checking those links and routes.
i am thinking of posting some cue sheets that me and my buddy take over the weekends.

hey guys,
i will try this route on saturday at around 8:00 (depending if i am biking from fair lawn or taking the car); it will be me and my buddy. Drop me a message if you are interested and wanted to join.

hey Guys,
a really good route for hill aficionados; both sides were hard to climb (stopped a couple of times) although the nord side (from oakland to ringwood) seemed more hard than coming back...we decided to stop in ringwood and come back that way.
It was a bit spooky because of the amount of cars and their speed as they were coming up the hill. Maybe the same ride on sunday might be a bit calm.

I grew up in Fair Lawn, and I gotta say... The Lawn has hills? :)
