OK,the day 6 was actually on Friday. It was 14 miles warm up, than 26 miles continues climbing,than descend and ride back home for all together 80miles. the climbing part took me 2hours 11min to do. Interesting experience and beautiful climb. The descend took about 45 min and we were able to ride down at speeds 35-40 mph faster than cars could do it. It was blast!
Over the 6 days of actual riding I clocked close to 500 miles with God only knows how many miles of climbing (way over 40). I basically experienced a week form a life of a pro cyclist. Everything we did was cycling related, and there was no desire or time to do almost anything else. Great adventure, I learned a lot.
