As you well know by now, Mongo's Monday Smyrna Bicycles group ride has changed from a 30 mile speed run to 25 miles of climbing in the Pyrenees of Vinings, Georgia.
Let me just say that being good at the first is no guarantee you're good at the second.
After eating some humble pie a couple of weeks ago on the new loop, Mongo got serious about some hill training...and it paid off. I have improved a little.
Riding long steep climbs with no more gears left and my muscles burning has become Mongo's personal Vision Quest. I am humbled by the journey...but motivated by the results.
