I haven't ridden this in some time but we used to ride Mt Palomar via Cole Grade starting at Pechanga. Cole Grade... hated that climb. Then getting back to Pechanga climbing Pala Grade. My legs hurt thinking about it.

Who is Ricky Sanders? Do you mean Aff-lete, then B-ear Crap, then Bernie Sanders, then Ricky Fandango (aka the plumber)? Same guy for years, he isn't hiding anything. "a saying amongst mountain bikers" eh? :rolleyes:

And unless Aff/ Ricky Sanders DD is about to give birth then you have no idea who Bear is.

Go fill your water bottle with beer and I'll see you at 7am to ride...

I would torture myself and do pyramid intervals on my flat days. Starting at 2 minutes, then off for half the time of your interval, in 30 second intervals. Trying to train my body to process, clear out, the lactic acid. Now... I try to ride for fun.

Climber ...as much as I could suffer. Yes intervals in between....
I could just suffer, not smart but it worked.
Now I'm a little more relaxed also...
A high high Cadence was never my forte, Froome pace is freak pace....
I think he's an Alien prospect ...Dude's unreal.

I was always more of a masher, Ullrich style. Love to climb in my big ring when I could. Problem is I still try..
 
I'll be doing about 40 miles tomorrow but only about 2500' of climbing so it wont be so bad. Trying to slowly get back to a semi competitive shape but it's never easy. Looking into doing the Spartan Race in Big Bear. Those races are a blast.. love obstacle courses.

Are we talking Road or Mtn?

Speaking of Road and Mtn. Last weekend I road SART and on our way back up the lower section, just before the little wooden brige, a guy was riding down on his Cross bike. I thought Single Speeders are nuts, but Cross riders are at a whole different level. Ride was great except all the freakin' nats. It was so bad I saw people riding with bug nets over their helmets..

Pretty harsh on our little klatch. Slaughtering the German no doubt but I would expect the problem here to be more along the lines of "Zu viel schnitzel" rather than "Unnutze esser". Not to mention schnitzengruben.

Useless eaters jogs a memory. I've been trying to remember the book. Frederick, by Leo Lionni. Funny, Tico and the Golden Wings turned out to be one of my son's favorites when he was small. Anyway, I'm maybe 6 or 7 and my mom's reading the book to me and my sister on the sofa after dinner. My uncle is visiting and he comes up, puts his thumb and forefinger on the book and says "If it was up to me I'd shoot that goddamn mouse". My mom jumps up and lays the spine of the book across his head. Useless eaters.
