The Electra challenge

Cycledork isn't talking about who has the hippest cruiser with tassels coming out of the handlebars (although that might happen some other time). No, this is all about the hilliest three miles of road in Cary. And Electra Drive sits dead center in the middle of the route. Besides, "The Evans to Trinity Up and Down Cycle Ride" would sound, well, dorkish and "Five Laps of Death" is just a touch too melodramatic. Here's the first part of the challenge: five full laps. Thirty miles. Obey all traffic lights and stop signs. Last one in picks up the first round, winner gets the second. Part two: if you've got a more rugged three-mile stretch of road west of Raleigh and east of Jordan Lake, cycledork wants to hear about it and will honor the challenge there as well. Throw the gauntlet and the date and time, once agreed to, will be posted here. Show me what you got.
