Pushing up the cobbles

This is me pushing my bike up a section of steep cobbles on the ride up towards the climb to Peel Tower. There was a lot of up to contend with. I got a bit tired of being bumped all over the place on the cobbles and it was steep and blah blah I got off and pushed. And now I'm a bit annoyed with myself that I didn't just hang in there and pedal. I gave up too soon. I think sometimes on a tough bit of climbing I bale and get off and push my bike too soon, when I could actually probably get a bit more out of my heart and lungs and could definitely get more out of my legs. As Lance Armstrong says "Nobody ever died from sore legs" so next time I'm not gonna wimp out.
