It's been fun to read this thread again! I never posted anything for June -- this year, my goal has been to get up hills any which way I can, but I think I've gotten to where I can get up them any which way now, and am working on adding a bit of speed and possibly a bit of "grace" to the process. I nearly caught DH on one of my most challenging ones a couple of weeks ago, and have left the poor guy in the dust on another not-so-big, but steep one that's starting to feel easy most trips. So, anyway, I guess I'm on track for this year's goal of being able to climb hills without too much embarrassment!

And, you know, ladies, this whole garmin/GPS thing is getting awfully tempting!
