Some Of My Favorite Hills

I avoided Newhall and Electric due to impending rain & time constraints but on the whole I had a fine hilly ride.

I’m quarreling over the Feet Of Up I climbed:

AppleWatch used to short-change me by several hundred feet per ride but lately it has had the larger number.

I was on 18 teeth in the rear yet I managed some sprinting.

Touch of Autumn ride

The humidity now falls precipitously throughout the day so even though I had planned desultorily on a 7 AM ride (I have 2 needy dogs) I ended-up leaving at 9:30 and the temperature was lovely. I took Amabo out for a mostly flat ride — 1228 feet of Up.

Despite the weather it was very empty out there in the morning at least.

Terrible plateauing.

My final Pass of the day, still aggressive after 42 miles

48/18 Climbing

Low humidity and light winds, so I took Mr. Tib out and up.

I was aiming at Front-Loading Shelby Hills (6 hills) and then taking Rosebank to the park and coming home up Preston. Tagging on Eastland and Electric was a good challenge at the end. Plateau Pedaling helps. 1608 feet of climbing but probably more went un-recorded. AppleWatch is notoriously under nuanced.

Plateauing works well.
