Russian Hill Roulette

2006-11-12 02:09:28.574708+01 by Dan Lyke 1 comments

Had a good ride today, up Mount Vision, 65 miles, 14.7MPH, but a small (3) mismatched and relatively newbie group so there was very little pacelining or drafting. Wayne's ride was cut short when he sheared the two largest sprockets off his rear cluster on the Mount Vision climb. So it is in the vein of people who shear parts off their bikes in steep climbs that I point to: Russian Hill Roulette, a cute little film about riding up the 6 steepest hills in San Francisco.

Joe and I watched this at work at NK (Winders 'Puters, and Joe's a fellow cyclist). - All of a sudden I need an inclinometer on my bike. I can't do that steep on my 'bent, but it's fun trying.
