Preparing for Tagaytay ride - riding up Antenna in San Carlos using a road bike

Gerry Cataps told me that the group will ride up Tagaytay, this time via Sta Rosa.  Wow that is going to be  tough.  A lot tougher than via Aguinaldo or Greenwoods

And so to prepare mentally for that ride, I rode up Antenna using the Bianchi with 39 x 32 gears.  That is about .37 gear inches. Today, I rode up with the Fuji carbon bike with 34 x 23 gears.  It should have been 25 sprocket but woes of woes,  the bike wont shift to 25.  It was a little bit tough because the ratio was .39.  But I managed to do this twice.

I hope I am ready for that ride this Sunday.  I lack mileage though
