The truly priceless part was being finished . Somehow though, these epic rides are like childbirth - you forget the pain really quick!

Most people just shake their heads when we tell them about our rides . What 7 mile climb are you doing?

The climb up Pinkham is actually a little bit longer if you start at the bottom of Rte 16 (intersection of 16 and 302). From there, it is 2 miles up to Jackson, and then another 11 to the top of Pinkham. We have done this as an out and back once or twice - 22 miles each way, with loads of climbing!

Thanks, everyone, for the congrats. And, V, I don't think this is anything like what you do, but tough enough for me!
