What can I say. Another really fun day of riding. A bit of cloud, a bit of sun. It was quite hot in the foothills, and surprisingly cool in the hills. 100km of riding, 1450m of climbing. Here is the route:

…and here is the vertical profile:

Two rides today. A 2.5hr hill ride in the morning. A 1.5 hour recovery ride in the afternoon. We climbed up to a smaller service road north of Salem, that has a final 3km kick of around 14%. The view from the top was awesome, the descenting was fun, the climbing was a little rough! Coming back down we went over 80 kph on a couple of the of the descents.

Once again, sunny, and even warmer. A split day today. A fast, hilly, 55km ride in the morning, then 2 hours of hiking in the afternoon to stretch out the legs and get out of that cycling position. The woods around here are a pleasent change. Lots of different flora and fauna. The local flowers and anole lizards are certainly not something we see much of around home.

Another beautiful day down here. 3.5 hours, 75km exploring the foothills of Oconee county in the area of Oconee Station Historical Site. Lots of beautifully paved rolling roads with smooth pavement and no traffic. Just the occasional dog to work your sprint!
