If I'm going the other way, maybe I'll be a mountain goat before I die..
Congratulations on your second place - you were close to the winner at 4 seconds. Anyone who gets near two minutes there is going well.
However, don't count on becoming a better *grimpeur *as you mature. Climbing ability is generally the first thing to go - as I know to my cost.
You don't mention whether you were on gears or fixed. If you rode gears, I strongly suspect you would have won with the right fixed sprocket.
