Rehab ride - first attempt - Up and Up and Up!

Cruised down to the creek for a real good go at the climb. Sprinted for 30 secs to realise that my GPS had gone flat.... bugger. Rolled back down, rested for a few minutes and used the bike computer. Made it to 2 minutes before i thought i was going to explode! Pushed through just waiting to see the gate - then there it is... pedal more damn it!!! Then made it. HR up to 195BPM, but no spew thankfully.
I actually think i can better this time by 5 - 10 seconds as i forgot to lock out my suspension second time round - have found this helps heaps on most of the local hills. Will try again in a couple of weeks.
