Deer Creek
Yesterday is what I needed, Not as long as I wanted but good none the less.. Herb and I started out of morrison and headed out to Ken Caryl and started to go up. It is a whole differnt world on the other side of the rock out cropping. The sun was out and it was warming up by the time we made it to the bottom of Deer Creek. Neither of us knew how far or how long the climb would be when we started up, taking turns up front we were climbing any where from 10 to 13 miles an hour, you could hear Phil Liget and Bobby Roll the whole way up. The fun thing about this hill is it didn't stop, it just kept going and going. We dropped a cupple of older skiiny guys on really nice bikes 1/2 way up and every so often we would look over our shoulders to where they were and the chase was on.... We were not going to get caught at least not today. We creasted the top and desended a bit thinking that it would go back up but we came to a T in the road and not knowing the area we headed back up and down what we had just climbed.. The climb it self was just over 9 miles with a lot of vert, again just what i needed, can't wait to do it again with out a head cold. We ended the day going out to chatfeild and the aroud Bear Creek lake and back to the car. 3:30 min 100K and an avg speed of 17 miles a good day ,.,. Got home and my new kit came in the mail and then I drank my first beers in 4 day with some good thai food...Ring of fire????
