Ruff ride: some pot holes, broken pavement. Moderate to difficult climbs. Wanted to at least meet the previous ride distance of 8.4 so I made 3 laps around the park. Push through the pain (as it were) and reward my effort with a bonus lap to complete 12.6 miles. Moderate climbs were managable but the difficult climb while short was a lung and knee buster. Managed not to stall here but 3 mph on a 30 degree slope (my guess) is a nut buster. Need to strengthen legs, i.e., intervals; sprints might have made the slope easier to climb. calF: 45.6
Weather Conditions: Warm and somewhat humid. 1700 hours.
