thanks Sean... I'm pretty happy w/my ride.... :D I'm particularly happy that I actually felt pretty good going up that last grade! If it wasn't so warm, I woulda rocked it... as it was, I didn't think it was that bad! (don't kick me dbp13!)
I hope you bought a few minutes extra of massage on my behalf! I got a huge ice cream, took a shower and went to bed! :p I feel fine today though... a little tight but not sore... YIPPEEEE!!!! :D

Hi M.E.!!!
it was supposed to be 108 miles and flat (2500) but was really 5000+... so not only did I jump from my longest ride of 57 miles, but it was a bit more climbing that I was counting on....
Gorgeous ride!!!!

It was advertised as 2300ft. It wasnt! I was closer to 6000 according to my Garmin, and it was 109 miles.:eek: Tracy did it on a compact.:D

Well I was soooo proud of your perseverence. I know you were tired and hurting, and you worked through it and got better. Great ride Tracy, you are becoming a great climber. I think you can rid of the roubaix cause yoou dont need that triple.:p :p

I actually felt pretty good up until lunch and then I kinda crashed... dbp13 pulled me but I couldn't even keep up with him! Eventually I felt a little better but still wasn't as strong as the first 72 miles :p I don't know about the great climber thing but I did perservere and got up the hills ;) Thanks again Sean for riding w/me!!!
btw... no, I will not be getting rid of the roubaix anytime soon.... may need it for Sonora Pass ;)

You could probably do Giro on your Look. Better watch out ... Tracy's going to turn into ME.

OMG!!! You are such a silly!!!! The other thing was that I was pushing a little more because of riding w/Sean and Daniel so it helped for sure... had I been riding on my own, I'm sure I would have given in to tiredness a bit sooner....
