The Mt. Washington Auto Road is open twice a year to bicycles, and I can't miss this one! It's the perfect blend of ridiculous challenge and fun that I try to create in my own events. In the video I talk about what I'm looking forward to, why I'm dragging Jeremy Powers and Ian Boswell with me, and how I'm training for it.

@sunshinecycling 2 года назад

I get clearing the records, but if they don't do testing now, it's a moot point. People will still absolutely dope, even amateurs, if there is not testing. The more prestigious, or the more money, the more it's likely.

Phil! You can contest the flag of that activity to Strava to have it removed. Alternatively, you can crop the activity by the smallest amount possible (usually ~10 feet) and it will get rid of the flag.

As the saying goes “easy course, only one hill”. In 94 and 95 I qualified for the top notch group but as Phil mentioned was cancelled due to weather both years (and for good reason!) Although I’ve been up da Wash on foot in all seasons, still yet to do it by bike

@CarlForde 2 года назад

how do you choose which wheels to use? At the speeds you'll be traveling I'd think aero becomes pretty important and deeper could be more important than lighter?

@philipk4475 2 года назад

Probably a 20-30mm deep tubular wheelset for minimizing weight. He will likely be riding in a group for a good part of the climb, where aero wheels won't see that much benefit (if any).
