I did the Climb to the Clouds ride this past weekend at Mt W in MA USA. I've done the distance, and I've done the hills (mt bike though) but I've never done both at the same time. It was certainly an experience.
Started out with perfect biking weather but by the time we were climbing the mountain it was a deluge of rain which is dangerous. After that it got warm and sunny and then it got humid. Nice ride overall with a huge crowd of very friendly people.
My fancy carbon Bianchi looked paultry in comparison to some of the bikes there. Wow. There was a guy riding the same pace most of the way with my steel Bianchi in Celeste blue/green. That was cool. Just goes to show that comfort is just as important as weight and stiffness.
