I just realized that i have been missing quite a few of the recent
postings on komcycling.
For example this one
http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/kom_/message/2886

I had to go to the indicated website to read them.

Presumably those messages are considered as spam by my server and do
not reach me as e-mail.

Anyway, i enjoyed those Fargo Street pictures, seems like a fun event.

Makes me think that the steepest (cement) road I have found near here
(in the vineyards) must be well above 30%! (I have to measure it
sometime.)
Why?
Because I can't even imagine climbing it on a road bike and when i
tried it with my mountain bike only minimal tacking seemed safe.

Cheers
