Double Peak, as some like to call it, gets its name because many who attempt it end up “seeing double.” It isthe wall that Foreigner made famous with their hit, “Double Vision.”The Muur is the final and steepest climb of them all, attaining a grade of 23% at one point near the top, which comes very late in the race. Its cruel and unusual and therefore perfectly in tune with our mantra: BTFU!
Whether one pushes their bike, pedals it or drags it up, at the top the most glorious views and IRC Feed Zone await. Plus, it’s all downhill thereafter and soon finishers will be lapping up the liquid joy of a Lost Abbey BWR BAD ASS Ale and swearing to anyone that will listen,” I will never do the BWR again (until next year).”
