    HA! That's good to know. I figured by the three sisters it was similiar to one of hills at home... just winds around a curve, or the like, and keeps going and going. But, the ugly sister or half, now that's pretty funny. PLUS, it does paint a picture in your mind of what the hill looks like. And what's left ahead to climb. Thx.

    The Hilly has a long standing running. The names of the hills would be kinda a fun tirvia game. Would be interesting to see what different people thought the rational was behind them. Plus, maybe something else to think about besides the effort of climbing.

    But the course has changed over the course of 40+ years.

    indy: You're a CIBA member, maybe you can find out the name origin.

    A bit of history:
    The Hilly was started by the Bloomington Club, but it outgrew the small clubs ability to sustain, so the Indy club took it on...and the Bloomington Club put its resources behind RAIn
