We took on the Cherohala Challenge—a 113-mile road race through the mountains of Tennessee with over 11,000 feet of elevation gain. The climbs were brutal, but what surprised us most? The descents. In this episode, we dive into what makes descending such an essential—and often overlooked—skill in cycling.
We break down the race experience, what we learned from fast and technical descents, and tips for improving your confidence and speed going downhill.
