Great story! I have a version of killer hill that starts close to my house and climbs for 4.5 miles. Used to take me 40 minutes. I'd get passed by the lycra crabon crowd all the time. So i kept pushing and got my ass in shape. I can now get up the hill in about 32 minutes, on par or better than my friends, and my bikes keep getting heavier (gunnar sport to hunqapillar to jones plus).
The other week I was out on my Jones plus with 2.4" tires (up on roads, down on trails), I passed most everyone I came upon, it felt pretty good, especially considering it's a pretty popular cycling route...one guy insisted I had a motor on my bike as I passed him and was looking for it, maybe I should have just let him think I had one: https://www.strava.com/activities/953448588 Maybe I should have been wearing a nice white brimmed hat for effect;) On Wednesday, May 24, 2017 at 8:44:32 PM UTC-7, LeahFoy wrote: > > Because a lugged steel beaut that is so good that it can - with its rider > in a silly sundress - smoke your fancy carbon machine...well, that Roadini > order is as good as placed.
