Okay, so they weren't mountains, but they felt like them.
After being off the bike and on a binge of eating and drinking odd things for two weeks of holiday and vacation I felt it was time to clean out my system of the poisons and start the long road back to being in riding shape.
Because of total destruction on Bluemound I could not even get to any of my routes...so I decided to climb Sunny Slope as a detour. No easy task for the first time back.
Hot. Muggy. No training. Hills. Yup, felt like mountains today.
I took the Minooka route, minus the steep hill up to the actual dog park, knowing I'd have to climb back up Sunny Slope on the way back home a second time.
Sunny and hot
86 degrees
Windy, 12-15
Minooka Park, 28 miles
So here we go...more rides coming this week as I watch the Tour de France begin climbing this week as well.
Season Miles: 1,130
