I'm from Florida. It's flat here. I wish I could find 500 feet of elevation gain!!!
The knots link, above, has been fixed and here it is as well:

Thanks for letting us know.
the link to the knots doesn't work... it sends me to the "start a fire with one match" video.
hard to add 500 feet here in south Mississippi unless we can use an airplane
...but I road my bike to work today...Guess I'll have to do it again on Friday!
Excited for knotty workout!
