Getting ready for hilly rides??

[velo]

I know everyone else knew that these sites existed, but I just found out last week. I went out to the website "ride with gps dot com" and spent a few hours trying to find a route that was a little more hilly. Definitely better than the routes I've been riding, I mapped out a ride that I took this morning. It had 1028 ft. of climbing, which I know is not much, but the best I could do from my front door. I found it to be a good challenging ride, but a little short. I ended up crossing back near my house and heading my usual direction to get in a little longer ride. BUT!! I did find some hillier terrain, so I call that a success! Because it's shorter, I'll do it for weekday rides. I like to use weekends to do longer rides.

RidewithGPS.com is a great little site - I prefer their manual mapping tools over those of mapmyride.com. Glad you were able to find a way to mix more hills in your route, have fun!
