Well, the Wednesday "Mentor Group" ride was the last one of consequence before the Death Ride. As a result, John, Lili, Paul, and I headed out to Kilkare.
The weather was great and we all took turns leading the paceline out to Kilkare. It was really great to head out for a ride. Once we got to Sunol both Lili and Paul headed back as they had appointments at around 7pm. After they left, John and I took on Kilkare. As John had only just returned from the Ukraine he was taking it easy. I decided to put a bit of an effort in to build some confidence in prior to Saturday's alpine challenge. By the end of the ride, we had traveled just under 40 miles and I had gone up Kilkare 1 1/2 times.... maybe Death Ride is doable with no real hill training.
