Biked 25.29 miles in 1:35 (15.9 mph) with 2,506 elevation gain. My friend watched the kids for a couple of hours this morning and I'm watching her kids on Thursday morning. Today's route had a few more hills than Saturday's route, but had a better shoulder and smoother road surface. It was a loop I used to ride when I lived in Superior, only it was a 15 mile loop for me then. Now that I live 5 miles South, its a 25 mile loop. Highway 128 to Highway 93, back on Marshall Road. Basically its riding the rolling highways into Boulder and looping back. Felt great until I started to get a side ache in the final 5 miles and just wanted to stop. But of course I still had one big climb and a few more miles of downhill to get through. Hamstring felt great.
