Today Heather and I went up to Cascade to ride Warm Lake Rd. It’s a great stretch of road that has a very steep 5-mile climb towards the end. I thought I’d be OK with my 12-25 but I was wishing for a 27! We parked at the South Fork of the Salmon River Rd turn off and headed east on Warm Lake Rd. We road over the Landmark climb and descended down the other side until it turned to gravel. Then we turned around and came back to the car. Because we wanted to do a long ride, we headed down the South Fork road, but Heather wasn’t feeling too good and we ended up turning around. After the ride, we dunked our legs in Cascade Lake. That felt real good after all those climbs!
