You mentioned Pikes Peak. I've lived in Colorado Springs for 30 years and have hiked up a few times, but riding up, even on the paved road seems like it would take forever, if I could even do
How long did it take you to ride up? And how was the ride down?
The ride up Pikes Peak took 3-1/2 hour, the ride down about an hour. My lack of acclimatization to altitude was my limiting factor, no the bike. Even with cheap Kenda K123 20” X 1.75 street rites at 40;psi, I had no handling issues on the descent.
