Mill Creek Canyon

The first time I rode Mill Creek Canyon I wasnt able to share all the usual stats with you because I had forgotten my Garmin. Today, I woke up and went to watch the Steelers beat Favre and the Vikings. After eating far to many Nachos and having had pancakes for breakfast I thought it best to get out on my bike and repeat the Mill Creek Hill Climb from a month ago.

The start was pretty rough as my muscles were rejecting the idea of the hill climb, and it it definitely starting to get pretty cold in the canyon. The sun provided occasional relief as It poked into various parts of the canyon, but for the most part it was pretty cold. I broke out the gloves, arm warmers, and leggings for the first time this year on the bike.

The canyon goes up further than I ended up climbing but it was due to cold more than exhaustion. I made it to mile marker 6 which was the initial goal.

As Always, Garmin stats are below.
