Mount Diablo Time Trial

V did the north side.

Yep, I almost always do it from the north side. It's so much closer to home for us.

I did look at the results from last year. I would have been in the top 700, 13th in my age group. There were about 900 riders total. That's just too many people in too little space for me. I think that's why I like double centuries, so few riders.

See- 13th your age group and you did the harder side (after I said that I realized you had said in the Calif thread you were doing the N side)! I'll be you'd be even faster on the South Side........

Since the road is closed for that event, it might not be so bad. I had having to watch for cars when I go up. And escorted down- pretty cool!

Oh well, another time. I do wish I could come with you on Sat, but it doesn't look very promising

Weather should be good. Go for it girl!!!!!

The brevet's game plan is to keep the HR between 165 and 175. That's pushing it up higher than I have on doubles in the past. The course looks to me to be the first 65 miles of the Davis Double and then return, so I'm just hoping to have a higher average speed than I did on Davis.

We did this brevet on the tandem a few years ago.
