There is a good hill not too far from me.
I call it the lululemon Hill.
I have never really looked for the name of the street.
You ride for a while on this one street, and when you see lululemon, you make a right.
You only have a few metres, it starts right away.
It is not that busy.
It is steep.
Three streets cross it before it comes to a ‘T’ at the top.
At the top, you go left.
I can make it, hmm, relatively (arguably) okay to the last street that crosses it.
It is here I go left, and ride down a flat street.
I ride down a few hundred metres.
I know something.
When you get to the top and go left, there is a little surprise.
One more hill, and it is far, far steeper.
This is why I ‘pull in.’
I get it together again for round two.
I pick up speed as I ride back down the street.
I get back on the hill and finish it off.
But here is the deal.
If I pass anyone, or if someone says, ‘Good job.’
I let them know I ‘pull in.’
‘The lululemon Hill’
Insert San Franciso Trolly emoji here.
‘There is another way to ride.’
