here we go

ouch.



Tomi's Big Stupid Road Ride '07 is in the books. It turned out to be the 'shortest' BSRR to date, but the lack of mileage didn't detract from the day. Climbed some fireroad that I didn't think I'd be able to, the downhill sides were painfully tedious slowness. New ways to suffer were discovered. On the gnarliest climbs, I only walked once for about 6-8 steps, enough to see that I was better off to pedal along at 4.6mph than to walk at 3.4, good sensations. Time to rest, for real, might even start stretching.....I'll let the pictures do the talking from here.....
