Tuesday again

 and time for Rocky Butte Hill Repeats.

I had to work late and couldn't leave Wilsonville until 5:10 PM. Battling rush hour traffic from one end of the metro area to the other, I've never made it to the ride in less than 90 minutes, and have taken as long as 150 minutes.  Tonight I made it in 40 minutes! I arrived 10 minutes before the ride was to start.

I had a good night.  My legs felt a bit tired as I started out, but just sort of fell into a rhythm and pedaled.  I was surprised to get 7 complete repeats in before our 90 minute session was up.  I was pleased with that.  The most I ever got last year was 8, and that was after many months of riding that hill.

Following the ride 5 of us met at the Alameda Brew Pub for a little carbohydrate replacement therapy. :-)

Tomorrow  evening I ride closer to home, doing some interval training with a few folks.
