thank god it rained !

I always name rides after the highest point on the ride. This happens to be a point on the I70 biketrail between Genesee and Bergen Park. The (sh) means that it's a "shoulder summit", indicating that you can ride higher on pavement without having to descend more than 100m or 300ft.
