Nice E. Although, yeah, I've seen Sarah and Aaron's garage in person and it is drool-worthy (and I saw it before the latest Orbeas).

Still, for two of you, you gotta love your collection E!

It's a commuter, and I have to be at work early in the AM. I like being hardcore.

Forget the bikes - I just saw the view outside your back porch! SWEEEEEETTTTT!!

My friends said there pass over Rabbit Ears was the most miserable one of the tour (one of the prettiest tours in years, they said). After 90 miles of headwind, they got to the pass and it was not only the altitude but the wind blowing down that damn near bonked them. I told them you ride that thing for your spring warmup ride.

LOL - and once a week after that as a time trial with a few buddies of mine. Ask them what they thought of the descent into Steamboat. That's the longer, steeper climb (that we do). The would probably puke - but so would I after hitting that pass after 80 miles on the road.

Yeah, I could almost see doing it from the Muddy Pass side (but probably not after a windy 90 miles LOL) but the Steamboat side would kill me for sure.
