very cool Tim. Awesome thru-hiker lady as well!!
This is from our team ride yesterday, similar mileage and elevation as [MENTION=418438]TimothyH[/MENTION]. A buddy and I rode out to the start from home so that was good for an additional 15 mi each way with a bit more elevation but not too much. I'm near the back in the black helmet and white shoes:
Road bike was fun going up the climb, but if we had to descend it I'm sure that I'd prefer a gravel-style bike

. Also I had to use a multitool for the first time in forever... My cleat came loose!
