After long 51km with head wind and on a slight incline we finally reached the base of Kitt Peak leaving this long mind boggling road.
A slightly rough and bumpy road leading the only way up (and down) to Kitt Peak where a set of nice observatories can be astonished.
Setting into climbing rhythm we all did our own job up. J. pretty strong ahead today, Py felt a little la-la... from that long haul getting there. After climbing along for a while all sudden some riders showing up from behind at quite some speed -- turned out later it was a Canadian development team. Py could not let them go right away but hooked up to the end of the train of some 8 riders or so -- bumping up his speed from some 14km/h to good 20km/h. Holy.... that get's it going but how long??? Starting to get hard after a couple of turns... and with HR ramping from steady 155bpm to over 177bpm for a while he had to let off and return to his own pace. But fun to try.
Turn by turn approaching the top eventually:
