Day 1 of training camp in the bag. 3 hours of riding, one hour lecture and core and back work in the gym. The temperature hit 70 with sunny skies and today is going to be similar. My wife did more climbing and rode 50 miles with 100 feet of climbing per mile generating 1650 Kjoules for 110 pound weight.

I did the bottom third of the climb which was across Mount Eden. I did not want to do the 5 mile climb coming up. I turned around to go back the way I came. The reverse up Mount Eden was evil and I did not know the climb.. 14 to16% grades are just wrong. I might have had a better deal taking the 7% for 5 miles. It's all good.
