Wintergreen Ascent Time Trial
Has anyone competed in the Wintergreen Ascent Time Trial. This event is held at the Wintergreen Resort VA. The course is 7 miles with an average grade of 8% with places as much as 15%. If you know this course can you give me some tips on riding and bike set up.
Thank you |

I did this race last year and it's one of my key events for 2006. The first couple of miles are a gradual rise but once you turn up the road to the resort it gets rather steep. There's only one real steep section that I had to stand up on that was a mile or so from the finish. I used a 34x27 and a standard road bike setup. I spent most of the time in my 34x24. I've got detailed profiles and maps of the course here if you want to look at the course mile by mile. http://www.scottthor.com/wintergreen/ If you have any other questions feel free to ask. |
