Imagine....
Imagine tiredness through 30-kilometers-long uphill with average inclination about 8%. Imagine riding a mountainbike weigh 30 kg... Imagine feeling of victory after reaching alpine pass over 2000 meters height, where breathing is obstructed by deficency of oxygen, exhaustion, and beautiful landscapes. Finally, imagine ecstasy through long downhill with speed 70 km/h on the serpentine road near its edge, z when you knowthat half meter from you there is precipice...
Can you imagine it? it means that you fell it. We'd like to feel it too, to imagine it later!
