How to take the record
- Pick the day, not just the legs: wait for a west wind. On a flat road a 20 km/h tailwind is often worth more than 50 extra watts.
- Ride it fresh: warm up, then start the effort at the segment start rather than carrying fatigue in.
- Pace it evenly. Going out too hard costs more time at the end than it gains at the start.
