    St Patricks Hill is a power climb... 25% at the bottom, 30% at the top... It seriously kills the legs and burns the lungs... But there are two other power climbs on the course - one of them is 22% for 1 km.

    Cav will not be winning stage 3

    Imaginary Quote from Mark Cav. after Stage 19 of TdF when asked how he motivated himself to get over the climbs.
    'No matter what pain my body goes thru it will never match the mental anguish I suffered at the hands of the people of Cork after I pulled up at the bottom of Patrick's Hill . I swore I would never let that happen again and have based my training on getting up Hills at the end of races.'
    :lol:
    Go neiri on bothar leat.
