Clearly a climb people have been avoiding for some time😄

The fact that I'm not even in the top 25 isn't exactly promising!

For the record I am currently 35th out of 35 on the UCI Lap with 1:02:26.

Now admittedly I've never done that course as part of a race, only a group ride or a free ride (I have raced the Innsbruck After Party, which is three flat laps, then the KOM, finishing at the top of the climb though). Based on my best times for the other bits of the course set while racing, I'd be optimistic that I could get it down to around 57-58 minutes, which would move me up to the heady heights of 30th!

Best time up the climb is 33:16 (can't see myself improving much there - that was done during a hard race) which puts me 38th out of 43.

I don’t remember the climb to be honest. I think maybe it was a race with multiple climbs of the short steep one in Innsbruck first and then that long one?

Pete’s power though . I bet you’re regretting selling him that turbo @CXRAndy 😄

You need to start aiming high Carlito!

I'll bust a gut and leave nothing in the tank but long climbs are not my strength. Be fun though, as a

By the way, did anyone see @Aleman 's message to "go go go"? Because I definitely didn't see it - but I've just looked at the start of the video and I can see that he did definitley type it - twice! Weird...

Yes I saw it,

Yes I saw it,

I also saw it, then leapt off the front and wondered why no-one followed me! That's when I went back to coasting and only started pushing hard again once others began to overtake me.

Thursday's are okay for me, but are the wtrl TTTs a factor?

Actually, looking at those figures can I suggest we just go with those current lap times for the result and save ourselves all the hassle of actually racing next week? Great, that's agreed then

As I'm not listed you might want to guess a time for me... maybe yours plus 5%???

Don’t think the “nose” comment went unnoticed last night either !
Can’t get the companion app to work for some reason so can’t type - but just remembered while working and it stopped me in my tracks ! 😁
