One time I was passed by a guy on roller blades....going uphill! Later on the same tour I was passed on another uphill by a young lady on a MTB with knobby tires....and her rear tire was flat (but she was not carrying anything, and less than half my age; my story & I'm sticking to it). Lugging stuff uphill on a bike requires a certain humility. dougP On Sep 23, 5:08 pm, Kelly <tkslee...@gmail.com> wrote: > 40lbs is an overnight for me.
