Welcome back, SK. I want to hear (um, read) about Little Red Riding Hood.

The wildflowers were still bursting, the hills were still quite green, it was gorgeous, as usual. I did the century with the "Slug Gulch bypass option" yet again; so I'll be whining about this again next year too. My back felt pretty good, but I just wasn't up to the climb up Slug Gulch - the bypass alone was killing me. All in all, a very good ride. Five chainrings from me. Sorry, no pictures.

I believe Yellow (aka The Animal!) did the double metric, which I think has something like 10 or 12k feet of climbing. What can we find that will *really* challenge her? Ah, the Terrible Two is coming up...
