i don't know what's wrong with me, but i really like loose and rutty climbs apparently. so far the best elevation per mile gain type rides i've found around here is exploring different routes up to our local cell/radio towers. a couple friends told me about this single track trail that takes you up that i haven't checked out before, so i went for a ride yesterday to see what it's about. super fun ride, tho the decent made me glad i chose a 26er to build as my cheap go anywhere bike rather than an old 700c like i originally planned. it's just too bad it won't fit a dropper post, the seat likes to smack my cheeks any time i catch a little air.

awesome view of coos bay up here, tho my pictures didn't really capture it
decided to climb the bare, not-in-use tower to get a better view, but i'm scared of heights so i only made it like 20' haha.
found this thing on the way back down
really happy with this old univega so far! need to rebuild the rear hub tho, found it to be a bit loose at the end of this ride.
