Not an Olympic Stage Race Report
After the throttling that was, Mt Hood Cycling Classic I opted out of racing the next weekend, and instead decided it would be better to get a little climbing in the legs. So Phil and I went out and rode Hurricane Ridge.
Phil and I had a great ride. The climb was a lot of fun, and went by quickly for how long it was. The descent was a bit of a let down - ha! get it? - but can't complain about a ride where you start riding along the ocean with a sea breeze and then climb up into a mountain range over 5k high!
