It’s hard to beat a perfectly-cool 56º Gloom to workout in unless, of course, you’re working out at Arise. As luck would have it, YHC was honored to Q at exactly that AO. After looking over the map of downtown Natville, it became apperant that a Traveling Willbury style Q was in order. So… off we went to conquer the Gloom.

A mosey off the reserve, north on Edgeworth, east on Bellemeade and into the Bellemeade Parking Deck queued us up for:
