    Yep, know those roads very well. But I think y'all just went around my favorite hill. The climb is rather brutal, but the descent is sweet! It's where I always try to top my PB speed.

    The feed zone was near the top of a tough climb. There were also a few other leg burners out there, though.

    Haha- maybe after one more season as a 2! I'm not in too much of a hurry to move up to a 1. They're rarely differentiated in races, except in some of the really big ones like Nature Valley Grand Prix (which I hope to ride in next year), where they'll have a sort of "amature bonus" side competition for cat 2 competitors.

    I'm assuming this is what one would call "an understatement" ?!?!?!?!?

    Kudos to you, Andrea.


    Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
    "I will try again tomorrow".
