Bike Writer, you are such an inspiration that you motivated me to tackle one really wicked hill. I haven't climbed it yet on my road bike with a compact double so after my ride I drove out to the hill, parked the car at the base, unloaded the bike, and headed up the steep hill. Before I knew it I had reached the top.

Well FWIW, I think that sometimes things need to be hard...are supposed to be hard. It makes us decide whether we think we have "it" in us to at least try and succeed. I think that if everything in life was easy I'd be very bored.

Agreed. And for Bike Writer who has the unique challenges of RA and a total knee (myself included) it's doubly hard and any success is even sweeter.
