Wednesday Hills - Penticton Shadow Ride

I have a perfect climb from my campground to the highway to do Wednesday hill repeats - the total climb is 1.05 km @ 7.0%, but it peaks at 14% halfway up and has 350m @ 12% leading into the 14% switchback. Then the top has two 200m sections at 5% with a flat bit in between to get rolling. Climb times were 3:47, 3:46, 3:53, 3:55, 3:42 (ouch). That was all I could handle. I did a 35 km warmup loop around Skaha Lake first. The climb from 16 to 21 km is the McLean Creek loop on the Ironman Canada course, and the climb from 25 to 30 km is OK Falls to Kaleden on the west side of Skaha Lake.
