Thank you for posting this today. You might have noticed I crashed yesterday. I wasn't thrilled to ride today, but my husband (who feels sufficiently bad) was worried I wouldn't ride again after my a$$ over elbows experience. So, he convinced me to go for a long ride today. We went "the way of the hills" as I refer to them. 32 miles. I only really have one good hand because my left thumb isn't healed, so hills were a concern. But, as I was 3/4 up a hard one and about to give up, I though of you being able to get up the hill. I made it with one hand. Heavy breathing and all! I still had to walk the monster, but your post got me up one I might not have made to the top otherwise.
So, thank you.
