Why?



Three elevation change profiles.
My house to the nearest nearest post office ...
Caltrain station to my house ...
my house to grocery store.
What do these tell us? 
That I live in a pretty hilly area.
What don't they tell us?
That the area is also prone to strong winds much of the year.
My definition of the ideal ride:  Downhill, with wind at back.
And the ride from hell?  Uphill, into the wind, at the end of a working day.
"A" = "My House"
