10%?? Or maybe it was really 3%....

[trigurl]

I did a Mtn Climb time trial Sunday, 10% for 1.89 miles no letting up either and switchbacks all the way up - on a road - the winners all men, made it up in 9+ minutes, I on the other hand did it in 19:54 I thought what I had been climbing was 10% and it may be in parts but there are also downhills to catch your breathe, not on this one tho.

I wasn't last there were only 2 other women who did it, in the age group younger than me, and they both came in over 21 min I loved it.

I went for a ride last night and caught up with a group of riders, one guy said hey your the time trial lady, great job, he said he checked the results and I did good I was really excited! I can't believe he recognized me or thought almost 20 min was a good job.

Now I have to get a thingy to check the grades! I am also climbing that same mtn every monday with a new bike buddy! next year I will have a much better time
