Does anyone know a site which discusses what a good time is for climbing mandeville cyn rd from sunset to the very top? I want to benchmark my time.

Thanks

Ben, keep in mind those times on that site start from the first stop sign, not sunset. Only a minute or so difference, but fyi.

It is not the PR on the way UP you should think about but the PR on the way DOWN so you can stay in front of the cars carrying enraged doctors...

I haven't been up there in a while. I really love going up there, never timed myself going up it though. It's a nice steady climb, till about the last 200 yards when you're already tired and then the grade increases.
