Well this was not a long ride, but it was a up hill ride. On the first climb to the top I was going along and just as I put it in a lower gear I heard a rubber scrapping sound on my back tire, then I heard a rider go down. That was really freaky. At first I thought something was wrong with my bike. The other riders assured me it was not my fault, because he was a experienced rider and should have been paying attention. During the ride we had another lady fall. :( I didn't see it happen and I hope she was ok.
So basically we went in circles two times climbing in different gears. The first two time spinning, the second a bit harder with standing every 10 peddles, easier said than done.
Note to self this hill is really close to where I live, so I'm probably go back and practice there.
After we complete our climbing, we all headed home and I rode home with Betsy.
Along El Monte Ave and I let loose and did 26.2 miles an hour. That is one of the area I practice my sprints.
Tomorrow getting ready for spinning class. I'm going to be adding that to my mileage, because it's still riding.
