Read it again. I didn't say climbing/endurance is never fun. I said sometimes we bike in ways that are not fun because we have other goals for that type of ride even if it's not fun that day. My point is that in bygone days I would have stuck that climb out because, well, that's what you do: Keep pedaling. On this day I realized, A). I'm not having fun, and, B). walking might be nice. It was.
