Good job on the climb!! I hope there wasn't too much fog on Coleman so you could enjoy the views! :)
Dear Nancy,
Yes, we did BOTH WAYS, out and back. Loved the route and hope to make it one of our bi-weekly rides.......It was so foggy at the top............no views of the ocean but I saw alot of cows.........real ones!!!!
:D:D
The first time I climbed Coleman Valley was with Maillotpois. I was actually able to stay with her because she had pulmonary embolisms. Yes, really. :eek:
The cows were kind of scary that day - all red eyed. Freaky looking. It's a great climb, in spite of the scary cows.

LOL - and because you're a darn good climber. We had the cows crossing the road in front of us last time we did this road a couple weeks ago and I thought of you. :p No freaky possessed bull this time.Quote:

I wanted to take pictures but it was so freaking steep I was afraid if I stopped I'd tip over. :p
There is a long hill down home. Like I said, the cars stuggle to go up. I checked the web site is it says 6%!! you've got to be kidding me. I looks more like 25%. Are you sure it's accurate?
