I'll second "The Stick", I've been using it a lot lately, especially after running it really loosens the leg muscles up and the lower back.

congrats Shadon! conquering hills gives one such a feeling of accomplishment!! - not the mention the reward of the wicked awesome descent on the other side!![]()
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
Um...decents still scare me...though that other side of El Camiono Alto was easier this time than it was two weeks ago. I just hate those fast, cury decents!Originally Posted by CorsairMac
The sweet thing about descents - you don't have to even pedal iffen ya don't want to! After working so hard on the climb you can just sit and coast (might be Really hard on your muscles but there is something to be said for just coasting!). Descents don't have to be fast to be a reward for your hard work!Originally Posted by shadon
