  1. Wow, that is a lot of calories. It would be fun to be able to train that much. Hope the weather is good.

  2. Next time you are in town give me a buzz if you want to go for a Mt Lemmon time trial. Curious what your bottom to top wattage was on Jan 13th - not this warm-up, ride, and coast down the mountain stuff -TG
