Felt good, beautiful day. Should be over the top in no time. Started the climb, cooking along at 7 miles an hour, should be there in no time. 45 minutes into the climb and the sign says 7 miles to the summit. I settled in at a very respectable 5 miles an hour. About a third of the way up two younger bicyclists flashed by me going the other way. Downhill. I busted my rear all the way to the top. Probably 2 hours total. I sat down at the summit and the two bicyclists pulled up 15 mins later. They greeted me and asked if I was the guy that they had passed going downhill. I proudly said yes. I then asked if they had gotten a ride back up to the summit. " No we just turned around and rode back up."
Must have had the wind at thier backs.
