Sorry in advance for the self-indulgence here, but: I did the Transalp from June 26 to July 2 (the road bike version, not the mountain bike tour).

17 passes
780 km (475 miles)
nearly 19,000 meters (over 61,000 vertical feet)
7 days without a break

and placed between the 55 - 60% bracket overall.

It was the experience of a lifetime, on or off a bike. I am putting together a write-up about the race and all the experiences that went with it and will post it as a PDF sometime in the near future. I hope some of you are interested. You can check out the event at www.tourtransalp.de and click on the British flag icon. Don't miss the profiles of each day's stage and the pictures.
