G'day Guys,

For those who don't like chocolate or who are allergic to peanuts, we can say hills are like sex, there no such thing as bad sex, just sometimes you get to breathe harder than other times.

Peace

You live on the West Hill.  The closer you get to Pinnacle street, the steeper the hill becomes, but you'll climb the same hill if you head North or South, it really depends on how steep you want to climb.  The only real hill in the PEC half is more like Church Street, heading south from Station, so if you want to head in that direction, it's not a bad idea.  Or head over the river and run up either North Park Gdns or Elvins Gardens, or just run to the north end of the Riverside trail and do the hill at the 401.  All great options that don't include the Bay Bridge.  (Which sucks in the middle of January in a blizzard, BTW, especially at night).
Trenton is much better for hills including all listed plus Mount Pelion, and Dufferin Street from the bay all the way to the top of Mount Pelion.

Actually, I'm pretty sure I'm in East Hill (I'm east of the area known as Old East Hill) but those are still good tips, especially the one on Church.
Thanks!

Thanks Mike!  Forgot about the one on Church.  Just might have to make up a new route to incorporate that one in!!
