az_cyclist, Tell us how you really feel about Potrero!
You're probably impressed with what a beautiful road it is. Or (for sure) the great views you have when going up Potrero!
Okay, actually, there are 3 Potrero climbs.
1. Pre-Potrero, A nice climb and it warms up your legs for . . .
2. The "Real" Potrero, just so you know what 20% really feels like (for, okay, maybe longer than you wanted).
and finally,
3. Post Potrero, after a little jog, a longish but not too steep climb with the day's 2nd Checkpoint about 2/3 of the way up.
I know you gotta love Potrero; I sure do
