Climbed Mont Ventoux Today

Came back from work. Nuked a quick dinner. Then I jumped on my bike and climbed to the top of Mont Ventoux.

2:55 minutes on the trainer. That is a record. I did the ascent from Bedoin (22 kilometers) in about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Iban Mayo did the Mont Ventoux TT in the 2004 Dauphine Libere in 55 minutes!! Granted I didn't go all out (averaged about 250 Watts for the whole climb), but that is just amazing to be able to pedal your bike that fast. It makes you wonder...

Anyways, I wanted to put a picture of Mont Ventoux up, so I google image searched it. And here was the winner:
