Well done.

My main issue with Welch Creek (er, besides the fact that it's stupid-steep) is that the descent is tricky. It's a narrow road with some blind curves and not particularly good visibility heading down. Princess Zippy once almost got too close and personal with a truck that was heading up. And grazing cows can wander across the road at inopportune moments.

I figure if I'm going to work that hard going up a hill I'd just as soon be rewarded with a fun descent.
