PROLOGUE TIME TRIAL
Climb? Fast? Climb Fast? Do you have what it takes?
The Mountain Prologue Time Trial is a true test of character. The 5 mile TT course features 1100 foot elevation gain, including the climb of "Alpe de Gannett", a gut-wrenching climb at any speed of 800 feet in less than a mile. The mountaintop finish is reminiscent of the TDF climbs (L'Alpe D'Huez, Col de la Tourmalet, etc). This year riders will be able to test themselves, but also shoot for the course records established last year... see how last years victims/participants, fared...
