Route

I spent five days after the bike in order to give a pulled muscle some time to heal. By today I was itching for a ride, and it just happened to be time to pick up our weekly CSA delivery. Perfect.

I biked up the same hill I mentioned earlier and had a much easier — although not easy — time of it. I attribute this to three factors.

• Practice
• A higher saddle position
• Just sucking it up and pedaling

The saddle change is thanks to the excellent articles over at Rivendell Bicycle Works. Their unabashed Tolkein fanboy-ism aside, they look like an awesome crew of people.
