If you want to sit back and watch carnage, all you have to do is watch the Mets.
They do suck.
They do suck.

Found this in another forum talking about a steep hill called Las Flores something about 20% grade.

Unfortunately the only times I've climbed Balcolm has been as part of a double century.
It's funny going out to see the Tour of California and people attempting Balcolm and saying "whew that was tough!" Then I say "trying doing it 140 miles into a double and 12k on your legs." Then there's still Decker and Piuma and Schreun (sp?). 16,500 feet in that double and nothing goes higher than what 3,000 feet?
