I’ve probably mentioned before — there are a few hills around here that we call “Heartbreakers.” The only criteria is that, on the first time up, you come around a corner thinking you’ll see the top only to find a steeper climb with another corner ahead. The term is derived from the time I was waiting for Joon at the top of a climb, and as he came around the last corner to see an even steeper hill, I heard him mutter, “This is heartbreaking.”
Well, we visited that climb again today, and of course he knew what to expect this time. But that doesn’t stop us from calling it “Heartbreaker.” Because it still does the job. But, as sore as I am right now, I’d do it again. Not any time soon, but someday.
I like the “Farm girl” photo best. The schematic in the upper corner of Relive is funny — so flat except for that one big blip in the middle
yeah, that’s the heartbreaker for you. it is significantly more of a hill than most things in the area, and if we ever feel stupid enough to get a workout, we head on over and try our luck…
