Scotty and I just got home from a 32-mile ride from Central Phoenix to the end of the San Juan Road in the South Mountain Park and Mountain Preserve. The ride features a pretty good climb to South Mountain Park and some great rolling hills through the park (which look tiny on the elevation profile below in comparison to the overall climb). From the end of the San Juan Road, you get a beautiful view of Central Phoenix and downtown.
On the way back out of the park, Scotty blew his first flat... Good thing he had me along, because the rookie cyclist had no tubes and no tire levers. I showed him how to fix a flat and we were back on our way home.
Today's ride was 32 miles and burned 1,800+ calories. Scott and I decided we've earned dinner at Delux tonight. Big juicy hamburgers and sweet potato fries HERE WE COME! Happy Easter!
