Egan 2024.24 - Top Performers
Some say that 5% is the new 10%; others say that it wasn’t really 5% at all; still others say “coffee and cake is this weekend, right?” Well, I’ve heard it both ways. In any case, this past week was a nice change of pace (🙄) as we stuck to the milder grades, discovered the utility of drafting, and learned the true meaning of Jens Voigt’s catch phrase. There were 91 riders that made it to the GC leaderboards and 680 PRs - over half of the ridden segments were PRs, incredible!

Laura Formosa was rider of the day with 12 PRs and 6 top 10s, also taking the top GC spot for the women! Top GC for the men was Matin Massoudi with 9 PRs and 5 top 10s!
Note: If you’re wondering how to show up in the results, here’s how it works:
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
