Went out to try some climbing today but didn't feel like I wanted to try Sebring Hill so opted for only the first two climbs in the Three Hill Ride. Started up Hospital Hill out of the saddle but didn't stay out long. Pulled at a good rate up the steep part up to Schuyler Hospital then spun the rest of the climb up to the track. Had a good spin and was able to put a steady pressure on the pedals for the entire climb. Enjoyed the first seven miles of climb even though it was very fast. It felt good to ascend without suffering. Had a mild headwind to Monterey where I started up the next climb on CR 22. Another long pleasant climb without incident. A little slower than I had hoped since I was anticipating a little help from the tailwind. Felt good over the top an admired what is probably the best view in the county. Down hill was fast though I remembered it having sharper curves than I experienced today. Didn't even glance up Sebring Hill as I passed through Tyrone and just kept pedaling on the rollers to Altay. Got some speed in on the descent from Reading Center but had spent too much time on the climbs to have a good average speed. Still turned out to be a pleasant fall ride.
