It’s I know a good sign that road crews are out fixing roads & bridges and trimming overgrown trees & bushes, but I wish the traffic-flow moderators knew the difficulties cyclists have keeping up momentum uphill & not signal for us to Stop when we can see the way is clear. I haggled & took a right turn up a very tough hill I had not climbed in 2 years, so how cd I be angry. With tornado clean-up now uninhibited by any lockdown, I’ll probably incorporate the Detour into the general Monday Tour.
I went for another Double today just to work out the exact mileage (I’m off by 10 miles on 45s but 30s work perfectly) but missed the second climb up Shelby by taking Porter instead.
