Although I enjoy looking at the photos of the epic climbs, the ones that really do it for me are ones that I took on a memorable ride.

This is from the start of "day 3" of the Mile Failte. I'd ridden through the night, more than 230 miles since I'd started "day 2" with only a short nap and this was the sunrise.

cx or mtb is the way to go. CX will get you anywhere. That morning was a special morning I had to leave the house around 5:00am to get to Bolinas Ridge at sunrise.

Man, I used to love croissants until I saw how much butter goes in.
