So very hilly. But nice descents too.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing - this was for fun and training not for time. I wanted to ride up the hills to give myself practice, but I wanted to have fun too.

Event comments:

This was really fun. I was able to ride up all of the hills. I didn't fall down. It was nice to stop at the top of the hills and wait for my friends. It was nice to chat. I feel great today. Had some cramping in the evening - needed hydration. Legs are fine today - shoulder is sore. I guess I pull on my brake hood a little too much when climbing.
