After a cold start, we got underway. 59ish miles and 6000+ feet of elevation. I scouted the front half of the course a couple of weeks ago and I kinda knew what I was in for. I only had to completely walk two climbs, one, my legs told me to fuck off, so I took a huge bolus of carb drink, finishing a bottle. Once I got to the top of the climb and recovered, my legs apologized for their rudeness and we had a string finish. Overall, a great ride and my longest organized gravel ride to date. I finished in 5:44.
A stop in Ohiopyle on Friday brought me to Cucumber falls
