Final short video commentary on KOM Stage 8 Amgen Tour of California, Highland Valley Road.
In a few days, I’ll mix in Lake Wohlford Road (another Stage 8 KOM points opportunity) in my training to give you a mini taste at bicycle level of what awaits the pro peloton there. Then the big one, Palomar, followed by Cole Grade Road.
Little more (less than 40 seconds) video commentary on first KOM of Stage 8 Amgen Tour of California.
Here is some video of the base of the climb on Highland Valley Road for the first KOM points in the final of the Amgen Tour of California.
Riders will have a leisurely spin out of Rancho Bernardo, then wind through the flat of Highland Valley Road past the 2007 wildfire burn area before being greeted with a stout little climb. These switchbacks will provide some entertainment if there is a tight race for KOM points.
54 seconds worth here.
