The challenge is to complete 10000ft of climb in under 8 hours of total time. One of CTAWA hardest rides. Up down 6 major climbs and a few intermediates on the way on the Stirling scarp

So why do it when I have done no hill riding for at least 6 months? If that wasn't enough there was a gusty easterly making the uphill harder and the downhill unstable.

So it wasn't exactly fun. granny gear on the harder climbs and nothing left for the 14% gradient on Paterson road near the end. Finished before the storm

Coast ride with Frogs

Not much enthusiasm. A moderate easterly felt like a headwind most of the way
