As part of one my long rides I had to include Latigo. I was looking forward to it as I had never done it before. And conquering 90 with that climb was great... But I have to tell you it was awful. ... and thankfully mile 2 in on the climb I met an amazing woman, Judy. She was pure awesomeness. She was a talker and had stories that could go on for years. And I needed them. She had biked Latigo a million times so, she was able to give me a heads up about the road under construction or lack or paving, when the steeper parts of the climbs were coming and to be aware of the false flats.
Judy has biked across the USA twice and across Italy and in numerous races tons of century rides. She was truly impressive and if it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have made it through the ride.
Thank you Judy.
