First hill biking since my TKR. 35 miles from Carbondale to Cobden and back mostly along route 51. Thought I would share a portion of the journey. My camera doesn't do justice to the degree of climb but for me, it's significant. My biking friends will notice I only record the down hills and almost no video of the uphill parts. Don't want to embarrass myself. And, as usual, there are those that give me plenty of respect and some that don't. After the ride I had a greater amount of respect for the older riders who I had the pleasure of doing several distance rides.  Jim and Hank were the age I am when they bikes cross country.  I was able to ride the steep hills without much more difficulty than before the tkr. Looking forward to more challenging rides in the future.
