Right, but now I've got the uphill direction.  And the switchback right at the Lee Highway/66 exchange is unfriendly.

We'll see - part of it is that I don't do it enough (yet.)

MDS - thanks for the recommendation.  I'm a bit smaller in all three dimensions - 5'8"/180, so I don't know how much that changes things.  I think for a while I'm going to struggle with the Trek and see how much I do it.  If it grows into a regular thing, I'm going to reward myself and get a new bike and keep the trek to haul the little one on the bike seat.

Ah well - no more delaying.  Up the hill I go.

Love that switchback, get's the heart pumping.  No fun going downhill on it though.

How'd the ride home go, get a little perspiration going?
