Taaffe Hill Repeats


Yesterday, we didn't have our usual track practice at Foothill College. We met there, but we immediately took off on our bikes to climb a road that was new to me: Taaffe.

We went up Taaffe, across Altamont, back down Black Mountain and Natoma, and then across Elena back to the bottom of Taaffe. That's the big loop in the map above. It was a great ride with some rolling hills, climbing, and speedy descents. I did the climb three times.

Above, you can see the elevation profile of the ride vs. my time. I did a pretty good job of maintaining my pace on all three climbs, but you can see that the third climb took just a little longer. More details.
