Today was the hardest day I’be ever had cycling. It was one “long” “steep” climb after another. Although this group looks old, half the group are very strong cyclists. Not everyone was able to ride the whole way this day and used the van for some relief. I did well until the final steep climb of the day broke me and I had to walk my bike up (the walk of shame). I think it was around 68K. I don’t know what the elevation gain was but it was brutal.
We all stayed in a Muong long house for the night along the reservoir. All of us slept on mats on the floor in the same room.
Hopefully tomorrow won’t be so hard.
That was not a walk of shame, you have a lot of Donnelly in you.
God bless you..
I wonder what the stats were for this climb… should’ve strava’d the day.
