Dr. Jekyll is a mountain biking route on City of Peekskill land in New York, about 0.9 miles from the center of Peekskill. It's a short, moderate outing with a total climb of 269 feet over 1.8 miles, making it an out-and-back that starts and ends at nearly the same elevation. The route is steady, with the steepest stretch at about 0.8 miles in, where the grade reaches 7%. The climb is one way, so the round trip adds the same amount of descent. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Shrub Oak run to highs around 71°F in May and 75°F in September, while July highs average about 84°F. Several other rides sit close by. Red Loop is just 0.1 mile away, and Flow, El Capitan and Limbo are all within half a mile. Blue Mountain Park, a climbing area, is about 0.9 mile off.
