Rouvy Guanella Pass route done in two segments with short break after 3.24 miles. Total/Average Rouvy data -15.10 miles, 2997 feet gain, 4% average, 9% max, 11 miles up, 4 miles down, approx 2:28, 6+ mph avg, 99 watts avg, 1.48 W/kg avg, 2.57 W/kg max, 83 cadence. Summit at 11.22 miles to finish at 15.1 miles took less than 8 minutes for 3.9 miles!
Garmin data (for both segments): Noticed that on steep grades, resistance and speed increased to unsustainable levels when displayed watts went above 100 to 110. On grades of 7% and more, had to be careful to be in low enough gear and then avoid any surges to keep watts in range where Rouvy would adjust the speed up or down with grade changes with watts held constant at <100. No calibration for this training effort. Short cooldown after finish.
