 Oxford Heights

Decided to try some hills today as the wind was picking up and temperature was more on the hot side than on the warm. Cruised out to Coldplay and did the blessed wall by the church without to much strain then rode back to Oxford and moved on up to the heights. The hills were all that could be expected for in town roads. Had a couple with 17% grades and some lesser ones with 12%. Downside of getting to the hills was the stop and go city traffic and no shoulder but motorist seemed polite even to the point of motioning me through four way stop intersections before it was my turn on more than one occasion. Climbs were tough but used my time up before doing any damage to my legs.
