It was Lisa Predella capturing the overall women’s top spot at Prospect Mount Hill Climb. It was a small but punchy field in 2026. We done! #roadcycling

Bennet Rose rode away from the field in the 4th annual Prospect Mountain Hill Climb. The youngster took the overall men’s title and the under 18. He’s going to be one to watch in the future!

Mount Greylock is the tallest peak in Massachusetts, a monument climb for New England and a stop on the @bumpshillclimb race series. Lisa conquered it today with a 1st in women’s 60-69 and stands strong in the overall series! Way to go Lisa! 💪🏔️🐐 #adventurecycling #supercrew #cycling #verbankvelos

Nobody signs up for a hill climb by “accident.” A Crit rewards aggression. A road race some tactics. A hill climb…? Grab the wheel in front of you or just hang on! 🤙👊 #roadcycling #passion #motivation #cycling #WomensCycling

The 2026 Mt. Washington Auto Road Bicycle Hillclimb, the Queen stage of the @bumpshillclimb series, happened on 08/15/26, and I am so proud to say I survived the climb! Rated the 3rd hardest climb in the US by @pjammcycling , this beast covers roughly 7.5 miles and approximately 4,700 feet of elevation gain, with a grueling average gradient of 12.1% that ramps up to 22% at the finish.

I crossed the line in 1:29:20, 14th of 55 women, 6th in my age group, and 163rd overall out of 428. Not my best placing, but I finished under my goal time and set an all-time 90-minute personal best, and that’s something I’ll take every time!

None of this happens alone. Endless gratitude to my coach @rolobikeoficial for the support and the varied, never-boring workouts that got me ready for this hill climb. To the friends who showed up for me in so many ways, you know who you are, and I see you. To my @foundationcycling_nyc team, who pays it forward in ways big and small. And last but never least, to my brother, who flew up to be everything at once: driver, bag carrier, Bullit sitter, aspiring videographer, emotional support, hype man, and post-race party leader. You’re the best, and I love you, @bartolorodriguezomar
