This ride was incredible. It involves a 32 km climb to the top of Penticton's local ski hill. What beaut scenery but $%ck t was cold. I went up with just water and no food . When I was about 2 km from the top I realized that was not a good idea and that I am not in as good as shape as I was last year when I rode up before IMC. When I finally got there I went straight to the shop and purchased $10 of sugar just to get myself in good enough shape to get home. Was I glad to get home and went straight to the hot tub to warm up. 32 km downhill in minus 5 after sweating all the way up tends to cool your body off a bit.
