Tailwind and downhill sections, especially when they are "max speed", can often make a big difference in elapsed time. I've run as big as a 56 front ring on some courses; Gila in particular was a...

I would have passed him back. There's no rule that says once overtaken, you have to relegate yourself. I have been in TTs where I have gone back and forth several times with riders. As long as you...

Wouldn't hurt. Worth noting lot of folks go too hard coming out of the turn around or stay in too high a gear and grind out. That tends to zap the legs and/or creates an 02 deficit that can hang...

I'm an oldie (?) at this and have ridden a lot of TT's and looked at a lot of files of the people I've coached, and I concur on the statement above.

Even on courses with a fair amount of gradient...

Not a lot of elevation change or gradient if Strava is correct, so I'd be more concerned with the wind which is ground zero for pacing a TT of this nature. Treat the wind like a hill...headwind = up,...
