FUN!! Tailwind down!
I just pushed right from the start and as the first part is the steepest downhill I ran pretty much out of gears right away and was spinning at close to 100rpm which my legs are not really used to. Went up with one hand on the hood for a few times as the wind was strong and it came from the side from time to time. But mostly pure tailwind down. Did not look at the speed indicator as I knew I would have slowed down.
I probably could have pushed a little harder but the other girls in my AG did not show up so there was no competition at all and I rather wanted to get down safe then rsk something.
Watts on the PM still wacko (I had a whooping 531 Watts avg ;)). HR avg 165 and cadence avg 91 :)
