Tour of Walla Walla - Stage Race

[Eden]

Nice job! Here, we are opposites - I don't climb well, but I am big, so descend really well. Were you on your TT bike? Did you stay in the aero position while climbing? I have found that sometimes, I need to come out onto the bullhorns going uphill to maintain a descent speed.

I used my tt bike, but not the disc, since its only an 8 speed and has higher gearing than my other wheel. The TT course isn't a really steep climb - more of a steady 3-4% with a few bumps (I could almost wish for it to be steeper, better for me...). Only a few spots kick up enought to want to get out of the aeros - right around the turn around is one of the steepest spots. I was keeping an eye on my speed - a lot of the time I was up around 15-17 even on the climb - did up around 30 or better on the way back
I'd love to know what people's split times were - up to the turn around and then back down, to see if I was really losing much time on the way back. Last year it seemed pretty clear. One of the people I had caught and passed on the way up passed me back on the way down....

Congratulations, I think you did really well. Sounds like so much fun!
