Hunting for a Strava KOM (King of the Mountain)

I’m not a particularly strong rider, and I am a really (bottom 10% my first time going down from Old La Honda) poor descender. That’s why results like these feel really, really good.

42/4,383 all time on Strava! Admittedly, this isn’t a particularly difficult (-3 degrees) descent, and I don’t think this is a super popular ride for elite riders.

I did try to push my downhill cornering a bit more to the edge today, so it’s good (improved on second best personal time by almost 10%) to see the result.

Still, it almost makes me dream a little, to imagine the KOM.
