today's ride. i TOTALLY earned today's descent

lots of climbing and lots of descending. overall, about 2k of climb. this was about a 12 mi ride, and it took me most of the afternoon. totallyfrigginworthit. i rode the service road from about 10k to 11k. the last climb back to the lodge was on tar. i know... what a cheater. this was achieved without a single click of a derailleur. my surly 1x1 was the whip of the day, and a 32x16 was my only companion. so... umm... yes, i did have to stop a few times on the way up to 11k to stuff my lungs back in my chest.

all-totally-worth-it.

so, friggin cool to earn your descent.

now... i just hope i come home with a few new red blood cells!
