Chicks that climb hills!

Ok it's either Karen's fault because she brought us chocolate back from Germany and we felt we had to "work" it off, or it's all the new invited girls that didn't show up and we felt we should get in a hard ride.

Becky and Karen were back tonight and in their honor we did the Shady Canyon Climb.   It  seems to go for ever, but is a great off road path through some pretty park area.  Then we had some awesome downhills which we all deserved. 

We ended up with just over 15 miles.  Great job ladies!   Remember to keep drinking water.  It's best to have a pop top bottle that you can just grab and swig without having to "twist" off the top.

If our new friends show up on Wednesday we will modify the ride a bit and bring the mileage down.  Should start tapering for the big ride coming up on Sunday!

Climbing out of back bay.  Chris got a do-over and she and Suzanne made it all the way!

Heading toward the Jeffrey overpass - Karen, then Suzanne, then Chris.  No, Becky and I didn't short cut.

Suzanne still smiling.

Climbing to get over the freeway.  Nice form Chris.
