Picacaho Peak and back. This was a BAD route! The earth moving semi-trucks were trying to play chicken with
me on the narrow frontage road. The road was chewed-up with rough asphalt, potholes and dirt clumps! I lost it
one time when converging trucks from opposite directions and I all tried to use the piece of road. As the
truck swerved around me to pass, his trailer waged towards me and it came pretty close---I flipped him the bird and yelled
at the next truck behind me, "what are you trying to do kill me?!!!" From then on I road in the middle
of my lane--so they couldn't try and pass me without moving completely into the other lane. I was
sure glad to get home today--I almost couldn't make it up the last hill less than a mile from my house. Actual miles
