This is a really cool ad from Garmin - cool because it starts in downtown Tucson and shows the base of Mt. Lemmon and then mostly shows the road just about Windy Point (from about mile 15 to about mile 17.

Very cool! I'm sure that's exactly how you attack Mt. Lemmon, right? :D

Emily, that's exactly what I do... except at about 7 miles per hour ;)

That's a cool ad. I've never ridden it, but my son used to, when he was at U of A. One time, he called us from the road, as he was going up, riding side by side with a pro who was training in Tucson. DH answered the phone, as we were also riding up a (much much smaller) hill near home.

That would be me too, I'm sure! :D

Does anyone use the 1000 yet? I've heard mixed reviews. Still using my 800, but it will give up the ghost eventually.
