Ride Report 
This is a great route with a little bit of everything. There's the long climb to Mt. Rose, the scenic views of Lake Tahoe, then some desert riding and the short but steep climb to Virginia City via Gold Hill.

The light at the end of the tunnel

It's starting to feel like summer out there. Temperatures were in the 90s and there were big crowds out at the lake. I haven't done much riding in the heat yet this year, so today was a bit of a shock to the system and I was out of gas by the time I hit Gold Hill. 342 is never easy. I hit it again the next day on a 4-hour ride and felt better.
