Stoney Creek Kicked My Butt!

I've been slacking on exercise lately so yesterday i decided i was past due for some serious exercise. I grabbed my bike and went over to stoney creek where i figured i'd ride around the lake with noooo problems. which was true, until i was about 30 seconds into the 6 mile ride and had hit the first hill. I did all 6 miles, but man oh man was it a workout. those little rolling hills got me! it didn't help that the gears on my mountain bike kept slipping (just bought a used bike from the salvation army)... but when all was said and done i felt really good for having done it... now if i can manage to do that 3 or 4 days a week, i might actually be in better shape...

I love riding my bike at Stoney!!! I just wish that it was closer to me and I had a way to take my bike all the way there. Have you tried riding out near Metro Beach?? They are pretty much all flat and have no issues.
