Wow, snow already? It only snows here a little bit from what I experienced last winter. It's mostly just adjusting to having to wear double socks, triple layers, etc. that I need to get used to. I don't consider myself a hardcore roadie but that's probably because training all year in California means tolerating 50 degrees as the low point. I may have to become hardcore to tolerate the winters here where it'll probably be in the 30s come January.
Anyways, here's the full Sunday ride. The best part (aside from the sprint which I already posted) is the angler's climb at 45 minutes in. I manage to peg my max heart rate for a considerable amount of time while I try to lose the single rider following me. I never looked back but when I got to the top I realized it was Super Dave, a local legend. He was riding behind me at a comfortable heart rate with no intention of passing me.
