Here's how much I hate descending OLH - back about 10 years ago, I was climbing West OLH when an attractive young woman caught up with me, and we rode to the top together. She was dressed in full pro kit, so I stole a peak at the name on her toptube. Shari Kain.
SHARI KAIN! TWO TIME NATIONAL CYCLOCROSS CHAMP! And she was riding at MY PACE! I can only assume she was on the slowest of recovery rides, or having a really, really bad day!
We get to the top, and she says she's going down OLH. I hate that descent SO MUCH, I said no and took 35 to 84.
THAT is how bad OLH is to descend.
