I wanted to go do this, but I couldn't find anyone to go with me... and then I didn't have the money.
I live in Dallas... so not too far away from me.
Next year I am going to make this ride. I LOVE the CHALLENGE of HILLS. The burning in your legs as you are going up... and the mental push you have to make to get to the top.
Great job on riding the hills! Sounds like it was a great trip!
