I went up there again Sunday during thier Silent Sunday event, my starting point was Buckeye Rd. Last time I went there I only got as far as what I call the triangle, that is where the junction that takes you up towards the tower or you can take the San Juan Rd. I stop at the triangle for a short break to drink some poweraide, I was going to try the tower road but was talking to a lady and she mentioned San Juan as a warm up so I decided to try that first. The San Juan road was a nice ride in but the ride out was challanging for me, I did have to end up walking the bike for about 1/4 mile up the longest uphill section. After that short walk my legs felt like they got their second wind and I got back on and rode out of there back to the triangle. I didn't try the tower road but I figure once I can make the San Juan Rd without burning my legs out I will be ready to give the Tower Rd a try. All in all it was a fun ride, I put in about 23.5 miles of riding and 1/4 of walking. I will going back next weeked again
