Saturday -11-19-11 Endurance Ride 4 (my record ever on aMTB)

Well, having a coach is really paying off and a patient riding buddy!
Today I road all the way to Parker Mesa in the mountains for a total of:
43.1 miles; 6009 feet of climbing; 5.40 hours of riding time.
I never, ever thought I could pedal a mountain bike that far or climb that much, but I did.  What a miracle!

I took plenty of hammer gel and full bladder of water with nuun - one hammer bar and I try to eat a gel every hour and keep drinking.  It was fairly cold, which was nice for the long climbs.
Special thanks to Doug for waiting so patiently for me!!!
