Thanks, @
Heathpack! The "enjoyment" will come from accomplishing a goal I've worked hard to achieve. A sub-goal was to no longer be intimidated by elevation gain, and I'm pretty much there. I seemed to be pretty comfortable at 6k feet in COS, though I wasn't on the bike for 11-12 hours straight. I'm looking forward to this!
