The result was a stage win last year, so while I am not George( I weigh about twice what he does!!:)) I can climb hilss and not engage in the non hill climber convo, while it is still early in my change the resulte are encouraging! So , climb hills and while we may not like them , we don't need not fear them ,and the best part is for every uphill there is a down hill (and the Buddha rocks the down hill)!!tri buddhahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11374662300870632804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402707.post-1149165872625410222006-06-01T07:44:00.000-05:002006-06-01T07:44:00.000-05:00Glory is found on the flats and honesty is found o...Glory is found on the flats and honesty is found on the hills.<BR/><BR/>Keep working at it.<BR/><BR/>Stay tuned...TriBoomer a.k.a.

I've been keeping up, just in lurk mode.<BR/><BR/>To answer your question from the weekend, yes the bike does get easier. I think those early long rides are a good kick in the butt! But each sequential ride seems to get a little easier and suddenly these long rides don't seem as bad anymore.<BR/><BR/>Hang in there. And get some hills underneath you. You'll be fine. :) Just a few more months away! I can't wait to meet you and the rest of the IMWI blogging crew! :)Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06590295954365525648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402707.post-1149085239318387682006-05-31T09:20:00.000-05:002006-05-31T09:20:00.000-05:00Good talk..it's all about tough love...Good talk..it's all about tough love...Cliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03227378544813320248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402707.post-1149084779312599132006-05-31T09:12:00.000-05:002006-05-31T09:12:00.000-05:00I would venture to say that your postive attitude ...I would venture to say that your postive attitude will pull you through just fine!
