Are you talking about the bike path or Elwood Ave. (Turkey Mountain)? The path going southbound is a bit a climb with full packs. Going northbound on Elwood between 71st to 61st is not something I would like to do with full packs!

We were in Europe this summer for a month and I really want to go back and tour in Germany and Austria. However, I am not so sure of Italy as the drivers are CRAZY

and the roads are pretty narrow.
