ride #2: several hundred feet of climbing. maybe even one hundred. then a flat. and partial demolition of my rental bike's rear brake whilst trying to reassemble rear end
ride #3: post burrito lunch and bike shop repair of brake. abt 13 miles. abt 1200 ft climbing. pain. pain and more pain. plus exhaustion. good fun. followed by a lovely dinner at the Pub Outback. and ice cream. and beer. and sleep.
