Cool how your heart was just hanging out, and then shortly after you started riding, it was like "holy shit, I gotta start really pumping."

Griff · 04-29-2020, 11:06 AM

Yeah, the route I took isn't a soft start. When we go to Shindagan we have a long tough start, it'll be fun to get the data on that.

The heart rate went way up on the downhill, was that fear?

Griff · 04-29-2020, 04:58 PM

If you look closely it tracks elevation gain and loss pretty well. The initial climb gets me up to 165bpm or so. It drifts down on the downhill pieces but shoots back up with even slight climbs mid-descent. The big spike is on the really long steep climb from my lowest elevation. There is a spot at 6 ' where I almost ate it when I got a stick in my shoe and 8' which I think is a log crossing which may have popped it up for a little bit. I think if I sync to the phone app I can take pictures and it will place them along the route.

This is the long climb from the bottom. Photos don't do it justice but the elevation map gives a better sense of it. I'm a little fitness challenged at the moment but this loop should get me squared away. The a-hole in the black and white jersey lapped me.

Lapped you and stuck his tongue out too, how uncouth.

You could pick up one of these for about $10,000.

OR

You could pick up one of these for a LOT less and use your current bike:

I enjoy the pics of Benny. He reminds me of my friend's bordie. He's been gone for about five yrs now. The dog, not the friend.

He was a great dog.

Griff · 05-01-2020, 02:27 PM

My love for this dog is way over the line but damnit he's a good friend.

Loyal doesn't begin to describe BCs. I've never met one that wasn't a great buddy.

Don't room with Fabio Wibmer if there's a lockdown.

Gravdigr · 05-05-2020, 02:50 PM

I lost track of how many times I said "No fucking way!".

Way, I reckon.

Griff · 05-05-2020, 04:38 PM

Way.

xoxoxoBruce · 05-05-2020, 11:25 PM

How many cases of Red Bull did that take?

Griff · 05-06-2020, 06:18 AM

Probably never drinks the stuff...

This is what you get when Danny MacAskill and Joseph Herscher have a baby on the YouTube.
