Well, I did Mt Evans today for the first time.
Oh man, did I get an education on cycling at high altitude.
Ironically, I was feeling *really* good at 11,000', and thought it was going to be easier than I expected.
I was fine until I hit 12,000', then it turned ugly.
That last six miles were the longest miles I've ever ridden in my life.
