Had another spectacular ride with the wife on Saturday when we rode Trinity Road (10% average grade for 3 miles, so not that long but steep with parts close to 15%) in Sonoma. Relative to our respective abilities she is in better shpae that I am at this point in the seaosn. If this keeps up we will

Ok, that's just humbling!!  3 miles at 10-15% grade and you call it a spectacular ride.   ;D  Maybe if going down the hill!!

I guess, as Lynn always says, its all about specificity of training. 
You ride what is in your area (but I couldn't ride what is in your area or in the Rockies).
