Orion Child -This climb goes about 6 miles of road, 6 miles of gravel (mostly smooth gravel for most of it) And then the last 5 miles is road. Very doable on even a road bike but just take the gravel slow and careful on the downhill :) Also it's best to only ride Hopkins on the weekends since the observatory workers only work week days.
Note: PJAMM stops at the gate below the paved finish. Many Strava members pass the gate and ride to the finish.
