Big climbing day in Geiranger.
Have a personal target to climb Dalsnibbe in 1hr:35min which would require a 13.5kph average. Kinda missed my compact chainset on the way up. But averaged 14kph to the base of the small road to the peak........Which was under 2 meters of snow :(
Great climb but the wind coming off the high valley was ice cold and punishing.
Took some photos and headed back down to attack the steeper Ørnvegen (Eagleroad). Really missed the compact here. Struggled early on and decided to HTFU. I was so deep in the pain cave I had a little scrap with the crash barrier. Never crashed going uphill before. Was a wreck at the top. Looking at the ride on TP, it appears I climbed the whole thing for 30mins at anerobic HR.
Assume days riding. Tired and eating brioche now.
