Have you heard of The Dirty Dozen bicycle race? The race is considered one of the most difficult in the world. It involves riding over 50 miles while climbing the 13 steepest hills in Pittsburgh, one of which – Canton Avenue – is considered the steepest automobile street in the world. Watching this race in-person is amazing, but check out this video about the race to get an idea of how amazing these riders are!
