oh man.... I was not prepared for those hills at aaaaall.
Actually, I take that back. I did prepare for them, mainly by eating all carbs, all the time. I had to walk up a hill or two, plus a mechanical problem forced me to take a SAG for about a mile. (My front bearings were overheating). But I survived the 80mile route, with enough energy to drive to Kerrville and party the rest of my ass off till 3am!
Now the Houston landscape looks like it's been leveled while I was away. I can't wait to test out these new legs on Washington Ave.
