Saturday's ride, and out of town this week

Saturday, I finished a 50 mile ride, my longest yet. I was planning on going to Okarche, but the team coach decided it'd be better to go to Draper and get in some time on the hills east of the lake. I tell you, there is a hill just east of Hiwassee road on SE 104th that is a real son of a bitch. This time at least I made it up under my own power. Last time I tried it I had to walk my bike up from the halfway point. I can tell I'm making a little progress, so that's encouraging.

This week I'll be in Minneapolis for work. I won't be able to ride, but I'll be putting some time in on a stair-master; I hear it's helpful for getting in shape for hills.
