We're out of time for the big gains. The training is done. But between now and race day we can find ways to save time on the Leadville course. One of those ways is to maintain your momentum even when the course tries to slow you down. In this episode we will emphasize some basic mountain biking skills and overlay them onto some crucial spots of the Leadville course: The top of Kevins, the Pipeline Switchbacks, the Columbine descent through the trees and that hard left at the bottom of the Blvd climb. To guide us through these sections and to talk about the skills needed, we have invited back Leadville veteran Nate Whitman. Nate is going for his 23rd finish this year. Nate has four top tens and three sub-7 hour finishes. But he also knows this race as a 10+hour finisher. And he has helped dozens of others - including our own Hottie - get involved with and get to know the Leadville Trail 100. In addition to finding us some speed on course, Nate is also on hand to answer some listener submitted questions.
