So the Family and I are in Lincoln NH at Loon Mt for the weekend. It started out today Raining ,
so we decidied not to go skiing but we went over and watched the Mt dew challenge
. The rain stopped and it cleared up nicely , so I waited for the road to dry , ate lunch and
grabbed My road bike for a ride up the Kancamagus Hiway. 11 Miles to the Summut of the
pass. over 1800 feet of climbing.
I got on the road
into the mountains
right after I snapped that photo it started to rain, not hard at first then it got really hard.
I was just about to turn around . I snapped a picture (that did not come out ) to show
how hard it was raining. when it let up some. so I continued on. It is about 45 -50 degrees
out and I am soaked to the bone. But I am working so it is keeping me warm.
here is coming around a hairpin turn as I was getting above the snow line.
the thing is the Kancamagus isusally a very scenic road , not today
about a a mile before the summit a car going slowed down and the were
4 guys in it , they all were cheering me on with there thumbs in the air as
they went past. that helped!
any way I made it !!
at this point I thurned around .
this is what I just did ! , now I go down it !!
Well now , I'm soaked to the bone. it has stopped raining , but it brought a cold
front though , I screaming down the Mt , on wet winding roads going like a bat out
of hell! But I'm FREEZING NOW !!!
It took me 59 Minutes to climb to the summit. It took me 23 Minutes to come down!!
( 11 miles each way ) at one point I was doing 45 MPH coming to a sharp turn.
on a dry day its tricky , wet pavement ???
When I got down I was really cold , so there was only one thing to do.
Take BAH's idea and warm my self up again.
