Training

Three MVC members (me, Mark Dutka and Kelly Parsons) and Amos and Silke and two friends of Silke, Mark Rodriguez and Amanda (last name ??) make the long trek to Mt Greylock to ride up the south side, fly down the north side to North Adams, then turn around and do the north side climb (ouch!) today. Nice sunny day, and not too hot. I was surprised that there were so few cyclists doing this climb on a pleasant Saturday. It is a lot of driving for a few hours of riding, but we had lots of great conversation in the car on the way up and back. And it is a hard workout. Makes me long for getting a large group together to at least do the Mt Archer loop to get in some painful climbing a bit closer to home. Hope it will pay off next week at Purgatory.
