Mtn climbing

Today I gave another shot at making it all the way to the Cataloochee Resort. A put a mtn cassette on the HT and that made all the difference in the world. I stayed in the middle chainring till about the last 1/2 mile of the climb(which was also the steepest section), and I even had a little gas left to shift into a higher gear and crank up the RPMs for the last 100 or so ft. I climbed over 1500 ft in about 2.5 miles. Whew!
If I climb that well on Sunday I'll be VERY pleased.

Ohh, and HUGE props to Floyd Landis!

That's it for now, gotta get some rest.
