Comments: We trained with rides of 50, 75, 100, 125 and 150. The prep was done. We tried to stay course specific when possible. What would you do differently?: Perhaps I would ride alone and pick different pace lines depending on my comfort level at that phase of the ride. This would mean leaving Sean to struggle by himself so perhaps I would do nothing differently. ![]() Post race
Warm down: None What limited your ability to perform faster: The second 100 miles were beginning to get difficult. Sue and Larry had fatigued Sean with the first 100 miles of the ride. He was bonking, I made a decision to stay with him and get him close to Portland before or if I would drop him. Larry had left us and Sean dropped off the back on every hill bigger than an Ant would make. Because the four of us rode at different speeds it requires patience on all parts to stay together. I think to perform faster I would ride alone and pick different pace lines depending on my comfort level at that phase of the ride.
