Sadomasochists aren't the only ones who mix pain and pleasure. Come do a batch of very short, very steep hill repeats, following the Tabata protocol. Warmup on the short ride over , then choose a gear and grind up the hill for about 25 seconds, and recover on the downhill. Repeat as you can stand. And misery loves company; we'll be each other's cheering section! Bike Austin's Morning Fueling Station both before and after at Mozarts' (7:30 to 9:30).
