mountainbiking Starting to get back into decent riding shape. I have an 8 mile loop I ride when I can before work. About half way there is a nice climb which I always have a tough time making. Its not the pitch that kills me, but the combination of pitch and roots. I never seem to get my weight right and lose my front wheel, then momentum. Today I made it all the way and was very happy. Hopefully I can do this a few times in a row. The picture doesn't do the climb justice but here it is.
