I was actually serious! If the ride was tomorrow I'd do it, even if it meant enjoying a nice little ambulance ride at the finish.
Ya won't get better unless you push yourself to the limits, and you won't know what you're capable of until you do the same.
Yesterday I went biking with my girlfriend who is just starting out. Before, the biggest hill she had ever climbed on a bike was maybe 30ft, and yesterday I got her to do a 300-400ft climb on gravel
. Sure she had to stop a lot, but she got to the top, and proved to herself that she could do it.
I've got her addicted
she even wants a road bike now!
Go for it and tell us how you do!
