Last time I did this ride, I ended up cracking badly on the last mile of climbing(finishes with an 11% grade.) This time saved a little in the tank, for some personal redemption, and tried to "attack" the final mile...or at least the best I can do with 7000' of gain in the legs and an effort at over 9k'.
