A hugely enjoyable, fun, and tough day on the bike in the South of France. Col de la Madone turned out to be a real challenge.
I picked the wrong bike to hire, with a 28-tooth cassette. I should've known better, as being a relatively big-unit, I need a bigger cog to spin-out when the gradient gets close to double digits
My target was to get into the top -100 for my weight category on Strava, which meant coming in under the 1-hour mark for the official segment. This proved to be tight, on a climb that's 7.35 miles long averaging 7.2%.
My average numbers for the official segment were: HR 166bpm / Power 274 watts for just over 57 minutes.
Big thanks to Andrea for the guided ride and to Cafe' du Cyclist for the Bianchi rental, great service and lovely espresso.
