I rode my bike as close as possible to the Hollywood Sign without leaving the road. Or should I say, I climbed and descended the 10% grades to get up there. Going up, maybe I broke 5 or 6 mph on a 39/27 gear. Coming down, 60 mph in a 53/12, before braking.
Casualties - brake pads are gone, might have ruined my bottom bracket.
Also, I'm practically drinking aspirin.
But I'm happy I did it.
