Hi...I am nervous and need to some support. I am riding on June 4th in the "Most Beautiful Ride in the Country." I am doing this with Team in Training/Leukemia Society. I used to be a really good road bicyclist in my 20s...but now I am 46. My biggest issues are the steep hills. I am worried about Lake Tahoe hills because my knee is pretty bad and I really struggle with the steep hills. Has anyone done the Tahoe ride and can you give me some perspective on what to expect. I know there are two big climbs..but how steep I don't know. I have fallen twice because I can't move up the steep hills and then panic trying to clip out. I consider myself a C to C- bicyclist. I just did 70 miles this weekend and walked 1 hill because I just couldn't do it after seeing it.
