Damn... and I've been trying to lose weight for the past three months :lol:
Seriously though, at least the weather looks to be decent to the point where the Steeda SRI won't get bogged by heatsoak on that climb.

Do what I did ... convince your instructor to sign you off for solo ... instant 200 lbs weight loss ... gave me an extra 5 kph at the top of the straight - no lie.
