Covered about 16 miles (about 670 ft climb and decent) in about 1 hr. The ride took me through the foothills of Irvine along Shady Canyon Road to UCI and back.

Climbing up the hill was very hard since I was not prepared for it. I managed to climb at about 5 mph but the decent at about 30 mph was great fun. I’m definately going to make this one of my weekly rides and hopefully build up my strength and stamina.
