As you should be! Finishing a climb is always something to be proud of.

I don't fancy myself a super climber or anything, but that Spooner climb was ridiculously easy for some reason. I read that it was supposed to be something like a 6 or 7 mile climb, but it was over so quickly that at first I thought I was on the wrong road when I reached the summit.

Other climbs are hard like they're supposed to be, like the Tahoe side of Kingsbury Grade, where I measured a max grade of 12% last year. Another fun one is the last steep section of Ski Run Blvd. I measured 21% on that, and I'm going to attempt to climb it on the Dahon. I hope I don't break the handlepost climbing out of the saddle LOL!
