The second group ride of the season came on June 1st - following the Mob road ride, I wanted to test my new road machine on more hills. It was to be a 55km ride with a 12km climb through col de bai yang gou. Brutal and relentless switchback climbs followed by sever head wind. Luckily I had already purchased the compact crankset for the task at hand and this ride proved that it had been a smart purchase.
Photo taken with my blurry iphone camera - this was to be the descent towards the resevoir and 5-10k to the end of the ride.
Couldn't ask for a more scenic and beautiful day to punish your body all over the climb
