well as things unfolded this morning, I was to meet up with MMcG to buy some Wheels off of him at 10 AM in Sturbridge mass. around 8:30 I get a Message from Him to make it 10:30 and Bring my Road Bike for a Short Road ride..
so I met up with Mark at the designated time and place. was an beutiful day out , and I only wish we had planned better , and had told Quo_fan, IAB and Turner_girl. But alas it was not to be.
I relized I forgot to grab a water bottle. SO first stop a convience store where Ia waterbottle style gatorade.
the 2 bikes ready to go !
so we went out and since nether one of us knew where we were going we just made random turns at interesections .
and in our travels went down this very nice private road , some nice house and eventualy found our selfs riding past Old Historic Sturbridge Village ( read tourist trap ) as we went By it the road started to go up , and Up And Up
here MMcG working it !
It was one of those that you think you see the top and every time you make a turn t was still going up.
Here is the topo of it.

Hmm I guess that road name did describe it .
MMcG makes it to the top , its Ok Mark , you can Puke now.
then we went down a Sreacing sttep down hill that wasa stop sign at a t intersection at the bottom. and we road that and other roads , Found an interesting Bike shop , Goat Bicycles , found some more small hills, some dead ends , etc , etc
and finally made our way Back
Its OK Mark we made it back!!
It was a Nice easy 15 Miles , I just hope I didn't hurt MMcG too bad.
