I'm climbing the Tahoe side of Kingsbury Grade Saturday on my new Dahon Speed D7, since I'll be renting a car and it's a PITA to put a full-size bike in a typical sedan.

I have a Dolce also and sometimes I wonder if it's the slowest road bike around. I think the Sirrus I bought used last summer for $250 is faster than my Dolce.

Yes, it was around the lake...very challenging but I am proud of myself for doing it! According to Strava, I ranked 2nd overall amongst women (who use the app) on my climb on Spooner. I do love my Dolce, but this titanium bike sure is fast!
