I didn't intend to speculate what gear they were riding in on that climb; just making a guess as to their lowest gears.
I didn't see that race "live" in '84, though I was a teenager working at bike shop enthralled with cycling at the time. Soon after, the shop got a promotional poster of Grewal on that Pinarello all sweaty from somewhere on the route.
