Egan 2023.22 - Le Puncheur
Eganeers,
It is time for another repeat from last year! We will celebrate your BIG ring so we will do only SHORT sprints, but a lot of them! We will squeeze in as many as time allows. It will be easier so you do not have to “sandbag” your efforts on a small ring. Count the number of climbs you do on a big ring and post it on your Strava feed. Extra bonus if you climb Horseshoe Ct on a big ring.
Leaders: The usual suspects!

Note: If you’re wondering how to show up in the results, here’s how it works:
Join the Egan club on Strava: https://www.strava.com/clubs/
Upload your ride that evening (the results are tabulated early Wednesday mornings)
In your privacy controls, make sure that everyone can see your activities (if you’re worried about privacy, Strava has other settings such as restricting your profile page to followers and map start/end point visibility)
You have to complete all segments to show up in the GC

What: The Egan Ride meets at the Los Altos Chamber of Commerce parking lot every Tuesday at 6:00pm and leaves at 6:05. We regroup and recover after every climb; if you can do OLH in under 25 minutes you should have no problem keeping up.
Where: Los Altos Chamber of Commerce. 321 University Ave, Los Altos, CA 94022
How: Remember, pace yourself appropriately, there's lots of hills to climb! Pay attention to traffic and don't hog the road. Riders are encouraged to wear garishly colored socks on the Egan Ride, and riders are discouraged from riding Egan if they wear conservative socks.
