Haven't ridden Sugarloaf. I still believe Weakley Hollow Road in VA is worse...1.1 miles straight up. It's almost not rideable! But I've been up a bunch of times and can survive it. My only concern is the dropoff in mileage because of travel North to assist in my parent's care. I won't be my best, but I'll give it the college try. And I'm solo, so no distractions.
