I have a lot of shorter local rides that have a lot more climbing per mile but are only about half that length.

In my younger years, before we recorded elevation change, I rode from Denver to Squah Pass then down into Golden up the backside of Lookout then home. It would have been possible to summit Evan's on the same ride, I should have done it.
