I appreciate the kind words and you being Matt for a moment. While I truly am an egotistical parent, as any parent understands, I also am looking for those small pieces of advice that might change things for next time. On this course and last weeks, junior gear do not matter. We have a course around here (Ontario) where the finish is on a .5% downgrade. It is always in the 40s and sometimes upper 40s. There is no data I am aware of that shown max power in the 140-170RPM range for anyone any age. the 2nd part of that is if I can get a rider to develop max power at 150RPM (which I don't believe I can) I also believe that their max power would be lower than if they focused on it being around 120RPM. And as this is all over in 1-2 years, it seems like a rather useless - we just have to play along - endeavor.
