The Roller Coaster Challenge

Back to the road* this season and we're going to try and place in the top 25% in our age/gender class on Strava. You choose the Strava segment you're going to challenge. The segment must be at least 5km/3mi and no more than 25km/15mi. The segment must include at least 3 "rollers", hills. To enter between now, October, 2021 and December 19, 2021 you need to send me the exact Strava Segment title or you may simply take a screen shot of the leaderboard of a qualified segment showing your name and place. If you are in the top 25% of your class; YOU WIN WIN WIN WIN valuable prizes!!!! * you may find virtual Strava segments on ZWIFT or another trainer app - as long as there's a leaderboard for the segment; you may enter it.

Here's an example: I do this roller coaster every Friday. It is called Laguna Beach to CDM. That is the exact Strava title. Notice the distance and they're 3 rolling hills you can see on the grey profile map.

You may click on the map to see where exactly the segment begins and ends on a street view:

Here's a screen shot of the leaderboard showing me (Roger Young) in 7th place with over 400 postings in my class. I would win if I posted this ride, but I / YOU MUST POST A RECENT RIDE (OCTOBER 2021 - DECEMBER 19, 2021).
