My husband John and I did a race of 60 miles that ended with an 8 mile climb with grades of over 15%...he finished 10th - and came back down to find me....this is what pain looks like when you have not been racing for a year. So when you feel tired after work and don't want to get out on your bike - JUST DO IT!!!
John is in the front looking at me like - would you hurry up???
It was a gran fodo style ride that was just awesome.
We are fortunate to have so many organized rides and races here in the mountains of NC and SC.

this is what an 8 mile steep climb looks like!
