Spring was a bear this year.

The hills are a lot more fun on the way down. But there’s something about grinding your way up, cursing the day you were born, and suddenly it’s like “Yep, this is what I’m here for.”

Did you ever notice that the first time you go up a hill you haven’t gone up before, it’s really hard, but after a few more times it feels better just to know in advance that you can get up that sucker.
