What a prefect day and awesome up hill ride. This really made up for yesterday. My legs really needed this. I feel so much better. Everyone on the ride was great and the communication was there. And this guy in a Yellow shirt kept on gabbing. :) No not really, but he was very help full and was keeping a eye on everyone.
Yes it was a very hard ride to the top. This was my first long up hill climb. I was slow, but I was steady. My speed going up hill was 5 miles an hour. I had to do two rest stop's to catch my breath and drink some water, then I was off again. Got to a spot called the narrows and that is were I turn around with the group. To go down hill super fast. 34.3 was my top speed. Yikes. I could have gone faster, but I was not familiar with the road. My hands were hurting when I got to the bottom from holding the breaks.
And I am entering the next stage of my cycling adventure. I met a French lady who is going to start helping me do interval train, to get faster. I am really excited to do this with her.
I felt like I kept wanting to go go go after the ride and stop my self. It's time to rest. Beside I don't want to burn out. Burning out is not good.
