Greetings from a climbing addict

I'm in Columbia, SC, but spend a lot of my time as a weekend warrior in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I live for climbing and next week will be traveling to Colorado to try out what they have to offer.

Colorado is known for climbing. They used to train the cyclists out there for the Olympics. Breathe deep and hard, the air is thinner there. Oh and welcome to Bike Forums!

This is a little crazy, but on day 3 we are going to ride up Mt Evans. A little worried about the altitude, but I'll eat well and maybe take some meds beforehand.

Welcome! Enjoy Mt. Evans, and share your experience and photos in some of the forums. I've been up Mt. Evans a bunch of times (used to live in CO) -- I love that climb.
