The first pursuit was 2:57:5 and the second was 2:58:0.
47/14 for the first and 48/14 for the second. My legs are tired after 4K. What a wussy.
Do you bring a NASCAR style pit crew with you to make the gearing changes?
A 15 minute recovery while changing chainrings and cassette doesn't seem like a recovery. I would have to keep pedaling during the recovery or my legs would tighten up.
