[@jamesf4405]

Nearly 100 years ago! Amazing!

There's a railway and a river near the road... definitely F-Burg! Fabulous job, Ray!

[@kenneym2003]

Definitely Freemansburg. You can see the Lehigh River and the railroads tracks in the background

Made you feel like you were there. Can see the dirt on their faces and the struggle in their expression.

Imagine someone today is traing to do this on his new harley with tassels on handlebar. These guys in the back days had balls.

One rider on the hill had Bethlehem on the back of his sweater

That was my Old Man Achille “ Archie “ Joesph Belanger.

[@jodyschlamb1863]

Impossible to WALK up this hill! I tried. Don't know how they do it with cycles.

[@rickyparr8001]

I tried to climb the hill in freemansburg and i could not,maybe if you crawl you might be successful.

[@jodyschlamb1863]

Me too! I tried to walk up it when I was a teen in the late 70's and it was pretty much impossible for me. Some of the guys I hung out with didn't do too bad. I don't know how they do it with cycles.

[@joyceschaeffer6075]

[@D_Sendit]

This is today, if you didn't know.
