The Wrap Up of Rapha Rising
So I knew I had a chance in hell in really completing Rapha Rising I thought I would give it a try. Emphasize TRY. So a couple days I rode my new rig and my fixed without any measuring device. Oh well it was fun getting out putting in the miles.
In total I wound up with 7,789ft climbed of 68,897 required by Rapha Rising.
Thanks to Rapha for throwing down one hell of a challenge. Maybe next...

Rapha Rising
So Rapha has decided to have a summer challenge. Its in conjunction with some big race in France. Bunch of guys riding from tip to tail of the country or is that side to side? Not sure but it’s big, I hear.
Rapha Rising doesn’t sound easy. Especially since I’m in Misery. Not flat but surely not one hour sustained climbs to the top of a Col. Oy Vey. I’m still on the fence...
