This two mile stretch of goat path was included in America's premier road race, the Tour DuPont. Closed in the winter, the road rises from 590 feet to 1,800 feet. Short sections pitch up to 23%. Many cyclists avoid descending Platte Clove by continuing to Tannersville and coming down Route 23A. Including this loop to Tannersville in the 'four-county century' adds 16 miles and 2,000 feet of climbing.
