Finally did this nice loop today. Quimby Road, you are a pain as always!!! I don’t know why every time I ride on this hill, it’s 90+ degrees outside. Anyway, it was a fun ride this afternoon with my friend, JMack. Date: Tue, Aug 2, 2011 3:11 PM Activity Type: Road Cycling Event Type: Fitness [...]

This time, I started from my house to Sierra Road (8.5 miles). I had a good warm up but stuffy nose and this hill is not a good mix! It’s almost a kamikaze ride. After the wall, I almost went back. Labored breathing as I was going up the hills means my muscles weren’t getting [...]

First was Quimby Road and today was Sierra Road. In the past, I only used to dream about climbing these roads with a road bike and now I can say I did them! About four miles of non-stop ascent with an average grade of 9.4% and lots of steep climbs in between. We did almost [...]

Did a modified 75K by doing a detour to Kings Mountain. It was an awesome ride specially the 4.6 mile descent on Kings! I was racing with another guy and we were having a total blast. I think I pushed it too hard and I cramped up at the bottom of the hill. Then it [...]

Since my wife will no longer ride the Tour de Cure with me (volunteering instead), she wanted to try the 75K route that I’m gonna be riding. It was 40 miles of date ride with the wife – from Pagemill Rd. to Skyline Blvd near Crystal Springs Rd. then back. Date: Sat, May 28, 2011 [...]
