My cousin took me on a training ride up Tunnel Road and through the East Bay hills. The ride into the hills was almost the same path that the Del Norte group took this past Sunday. I'm happy to say that I did not feel the same pain in my back going up Pinehurst Road that I did when I rode with the Del Norte group. I think it had to do with the adjustments that Arthur made to my saddle height and taking our time. So nice to have a pro riding with me and helping me with biking techniques to ride more efficiently. Arthur did take the downhill rides quite fast. He tried to show me what I needed to do with the bike, my body, legs when riding downhill - way too much information - but I'll get it eventually. Even though we rode up and down steep hills, I wasn't as hungry on this ride as I have been on others. Granted this was a shorter ride and we we didn't take a break at the 15-mile mark.
