1/7/12 - Climbing Potrero. I was feeling pretty good but I tried to make a pass to the right and end up offroad. Fail. Found a gap and hopped back in, but I lost a bunch of ground and burn a bunch of matches and asplode, Watch for Ivan Dominguez to pass me at 6:08 pushing a monster gear.
would love to see your cadence on these videos ... (hopefully not as low as dominguez!)

@lbattis It's the outer ring on the gauge. I'm doing about 80-90 when he passes me and it drops to around 70-80 as the grade picks up.

that climb looks easier than it is, I always feel strong in the first half, then drop in the same place you did, then have to chase for the next 10k to catch before the park break, don't want to roll in there behind the group, good times

@NomadDnB Yeah I hate getting dropped there and having to roll in with the second group. The previous week I was able to catch back on in hidden valley. I would have done better this time if not for going offroad and using up some matches to get back. Here's to doing better tomorrow!

You're videos are awesome, they always make me want to go ride. Keep it up. @leothehusky This climb is coming out of Newbury Park from Reino Rd. going up Potrero into Hidden Valley/Lake Sherwood.
