Today I did a 105 km ride with a lot of climbing. The target was a mountain 
pass called Puerto de Tudons, which I have visited just once before on 
bicycle. 1024 meters may not sound impressive, but keep in mind that I live 
at sea level.

As I was climbining towards the pass, the weather got colder, down to 
10C/50F and there were nasty-looking clouds:

But I stayed dry and made it to the pass. Of course I needed a selfie for 
Facebook and other uses:

And as is standard practice among us cycling folk, a picture of the bike in 
the relevant spot:
