Sweetwater (beat by a minute)
I had the chance yesterday to go out and do Sweetwater on a demo ***** road bike. The ***** rep had brought by 3 or 4 bikes for Claire and I to take out. First off, it was good to be back on a traditional double. I believe it was Alexi Grewal who once said, "there are no climbs in the U.S. where you need more than a 39x21 gear." Well, I had a 39x25 yesterday, and there were a couple of cupcakes that were telling me that I could use an easier gear. Anyway, the ride went great, with only one pothole big enough to eject both of my waterbottles. I lost some time there and got beat by previous Chaz by about 1 minute. I also got held up by some road construction on River Road, otherwise I would have won. That is my excuse, and I am sticking by it. Here is a link to the loop.
