Note to self: 300km on a bike doesn't make you immune to gravity. Six days post-challenge, we headed to the Slieve Blooms. By the third climb (Glendine), I was spent. Between the 10% average gradient and the 15% kicks, I had to pull over to find my lungs! Brian "accidentally" guided us onto this monster, and while Laoighse powered through like a machine, the rest of us were feeling it. Still, you can't beat a day like that in the mountains.
