Friday " The Real Deal" Hills Ride

Haven't Climbed Mingus in awhile, so here goes. I will start at 0730 at the old fairgrounds on Hwy 89A which is about 1 1/2 miles past the split at Robert Rd. The other place to start is at the base of the climb on R just past the cattle guard. It's the turn off to Mingus Academy girls school. Starting around 8. Its' about 5 1/2 miles past my start. At top of Mingus turn R for another 1 1/2 miles until pavement ends. The ride for me to turn around is 11.5 miles and 2500 ft climbing. This in my book is an Hor category climb. You can channel the pros in the upcoming Tour.

Helmets required, lights on bright, e bikes may be helpful.
