    Ride like Lance

    Has anybody else noticed how Lance sometimes climbs or sprints standing with his hands in the drops? I've been working on it & you get an amazing amount of power from your glutes. The downside is that it's a hard position for your neck because you really have to crank it up to see where you're going.
    To train a dog, you must be more interesting than dirt.

    I'll often stay in the drops on rollers. You're right about more power.

    I like to have a whole "toolbox" of climbing techniques. The past few weeks I have been working with a former pro on refining some climbing positions. Riding with/watching the pros is a good way to send your climbing through the roof!
