In this episode, I caught up with multiple South African champion Ashleigh Moolman Pasio. We talked about how she ended up in Banyoles near Girona, the Rocacorba Cycling business, her QOM Strava record on the famous Rocacorba climb near Girona, and the challenge she set herself to get the best women's time below 30 minutes.Ashleigh will share her advice on how to pace yourself when aiming for your PR because pushing just a little over your limit for half of the climb will ultimately cost you later. The Rocacorba will never attain the status of an Alpe d'Huez, Stelvio, or Tre Cime di Lavaredo, but thanks to a lucky combination of geography, local patronage, and technology, It has already become much more than a footnote in cycling folklore.We hope you’ll enjoy this fully packed and insightful episode with Ashleigh Moolman Pascio of AG Insurance - Soudal cycling team Watch the interview on YouTube: https://youtu.be/aSg4d5oRQHYCHAPTERS00:00 Welcome 05:20 Live From Columbia 09:31 Rocacorba Cycling, How It All Started20:23 Rocacorba21:45 A Bucket List Climb, the Pros Test Climb29:29 Strava Segment, Mastering the Pacing Strategy36:20 When Getting to the Top 38:49 Tips for Descending Rocacorba Safely41:16 Training Intervals and Efforts 48:41 The Benefits of Riding with Local Guides in Girona52:08 Rocacorba Strava QOM56:25 Ending – LINKS –⁠Rocacorba Cycling⁠⁠Rocacorba Strava Segment⁠⁠Ashleigh Moolman Pascio⁠Host:⁠ ⁠Soren Jensen⁠⁠SEND US YOUR QUESTIONS If you want your questions to be answered on air, be sure to submit your questions by sending us a message on social media or by email to⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠ Hosted on Acast.
