Chest & Tri's, Mt Hamilton Basecamp FTP Test
FTP Test
I enjoyed testing on Sulfur Mt in Ojai last time, so for today’s headed to the Lick Observatory on Mt Hamilton.
Post ride: I started from the floor of the valley, which apparently added 2K ft of climb on top of the 3K from Joe Grant park. Not today, satan. I looped back after the first major climb (which added another 1K ft). Super fun descent. I’ll break it down by trying the upper section separately, then linking them up in a third ride. Pulling it off in a single ride would be like 2K m of climb, supposedly cat 2 (bordering on cat 1).
Got my 20min FTP up to 244W from 221, a nice 10% increase. If I can get another 20W over the next month I’ll be trending crazy-good.
