Yeah, I did this trail again today. I was thinking and looking for those 16' climb. I thought they must have measured the trees?
BTW, I averaged 17.9 MPH going toward New Glarus. Going back I decided on a more leisurely pace.
The 17.9 MPH required going with aerobars. The bumpy trail makes that hard on the family jewels. So I do that only to race someone or to check my PB average.
