"cannon versus the mountain"

i just want to reiterate how much i love my wednesday night spin
classes at ATS. last night we had my favorite format: face offs! the
bikes are arranged in 2 rows facing each other. the whole 2.5 hours is
interval based (oh, we did have our standard 30 min run in the middle),
with 1 row sprinting or climbing, and the other recovering. it is the
duty of the recoverees to yell, taunt, and otherwise motivate those in
pain. sometimes you can hear them... sometimes not. i do remember ken
yelling at me during one particularly brutal climb... "it's Cannon VS
The Mountain... gogogogogooooo!" i think i'll hear that line again next
time i'm on my real bike, facing something like winding stairs gap
soon.
