Battle Row is a short, moderate mountain biking climb in Kentucky, about a quarter mile from Fort Thomas. It's an out-and-back route of half a mile, with a low point at 712 feet and a high of 829 feet, a climb of about 90 feet one way. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Cincinnati show October highs around 68°F with lows near 44°F, and May highs around 75°F. That station sits about 340 feet lower than the route's high point, so temperatures on the climb run a little cooler. Several other mountain biking routes start within a tenth of a mile, including Twin Wells, Cannon Mount Row and Colonel Cochran Way. For climbing, Purple Bridge is about 3.5 miles away.
