Adirondack State Park
Upstate New York

Baseline whisks me back to the gondola.

After my second run (the run that I took all my downhill pictures on) I'm satisfied I've taken all the downhill pictures I need so my new goal turns into now many more runs I can squeeze in before the gondola stops taking riders up the mountain. They stop letting people on at 4pm. I wish to compare the gondola ride time duration to my downhill ride time duration. Can I ride faster downhill than the gondola can lift me uphill?

Here is my third downhill bike ride length, 24 minutes.

I board the gondola for one last ride up. On the way up I'm feeling rather tired and filthy.

The gondola ride only takes 14 minutes. It smokes me by 10 minutes. Damn!
