>>He was right, I clocked 45 mph on some of those long downhills and got so cold I found myself wishing for the up to resume.<< some of those downhill runs can get pretty scary... i was on a ride last year in snow canyon..it wasn't long, only 30 miles but the climb was almost just too much for me, (i later found out some of the cyclists used it for part of the course training for the tour de france)..... the during the ride back, the weather changed, temperature dropped suddenly as a front moved in .... really strong crosswinds moving the bike around while hitting 40+mph...lot's of red dust and cold rain sprinkles...my legs were beat and i wasn't exactly wishing for the resume, but seeing the remaining flat was a sight for sore eyes
