Here is one of my favorite local climbs. It's pretty tough.
https://www.strava.com/segments/580243
p.s. if you follow the grade, it does have some pitches of 15-20% the last quarter mile. Ouchie!

Its a pain to get to the good hills, like 20-25 miles in most cases

Crap! I am small.
Still, I was center on my under 5’7” basketball team.

In football, our first string quarterback was about 5'7". When they put in the 6' tall second string QB, everybody knew we were going to pass, because we had to have a QB who could see over the linemen. So they'd blitz, but the joke was on them because out 6' QB was also one of our sprinters in track and he'd generally gain yardage running with the ball to escape the blitz.

For some reason, the guys in my hometown were all smaller than those in the surrounding school districts. Our center in basketball was 6'1". There's were 6'2" to 6'5".

The little guy wasn't a sprinter. He ran the mile and the 880. The big guy was on the Quarter Mile and Mile Relay teams, which mattered more to our track coach.

The nightshades may be a thing - slept to the alarm two of the three nights since cutting them out. I thin most of you know how rare that is; that might happen twice in a year normally.

I've been sleeping straight through on occasion. That never happens, going back many, many years.

Should start a forum and name is "Cycling Anarchy." It's been very successful in the sailing world.
