Anyone have any times for their ride up the alpe?
I did 51 minutes in 2001, and it was the best fun ive had for ages. So
was riding back down!!
So if the winner completes the time trial in 38 minutes and the cut-off
is 33%, or about 12.5 minutes, giving a cut-off time of about 50.5min.
You almost made the cut-off! That's fast all right, well done!
Another way to look at it is to think of the required watts/kg. It's
more or less proportional to speed on a steep slope. I think I would
need about 50% cut-off time (at least) as an estimate on that basis...
